"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.“
~Margaret Mead
Bilal's Stand was created by high school and college students in the city of Detroit. Taking four years and several maxed-out credit cards to complete, it debuted at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival and won the Crystal Heart Award at Heartland.
Now it is being turned into a movement, the TAKE A STAND campaign, aimed to inspire and empower youth across America. We are hustling to get it out to 1000 schools this winter starting MLK Jr. Day (Jan. 17, 2011) - that's a reach of 1,000,000 students! This is a first in film, and we're super excited about the potential! But to get there, we need support to put the finishing touches on the movie and movement.
