Icon.
I stand on the shoulders of Ida B Wells, Gordon Parks, David Jackson. And because women like Barbara, Robyne Robinson, Roxane Battle and Lissa Jones believed in me. No one does it alone & I would not be where I am if not for them & those who paved the way for women like me 🙌🏽🏆🏆

Just finished @moryan's book BURN IT DOWN. Fascinating look at how Hollywood ended up in the mess it's in and ways to change things from the inside. As a Hollywood outsider (20+ years of making indie documentaries) I'll be out here building something new from the ashes.

“All of my films show that we don’t function in a vacuum,” Mikkelson said. “The people in our lives are incredibly important and none of us do this alone.” If you’re reading this, that means you.
For two weeks, #MSPIFF will screen some 200 selections, host a series of panels and exclusive events highlighting exciting new voices in American cinema, including talent based here in Minnesota. https://t.co/0unLl9GXGa by @kouhi_nick
