Ep 385 - Sarah Oberholtzer, Abolitionist Filmmaker of We Call Each Other
About this episode
Sarah Oberholtzer discusses her film 'We Call Each Other' and the themes of community, safety, and abolition.
AirGo is joined by Sarah Oberholtzer, a filmmaker, educator, community organizer, and Respair collaborator who has just put some excellent art into the world. Sarah is the creator of We Call Each Other, a heartfelt short film about a community moving through drought and environmental racism. Weaving nonfiction recorded audio into a scripted story, it features characters who lean on one another to build safety and repair without relying on prisons or police. Built through a collaborative abolitionist writers room, the project is a great example of what it looks like to make new political realities legible. Sarah and the guys talk about the evolution of the project, how we need your support to make the second installment of the series come to fruition, and the relationship between faith and abolition.
