* Battle: Change from within / Battle: Cambio desde adentro (2012), ca. 50 minutes long. Co-produced and co-directed by Juanamaría Cordones-Cook, Julie Middleton, and Barbara Williamson and others.
Comment: This documentary explores in depth the life of Dr. Eliot Battle, a Columbia educator who played a pivotal role in desegregating schools, housing, and the community. As he facilitated changes with quiet resolve, he faced resistance from both the black and white communities. His calm demeanor and dedicated work within existing institutions and systems allowed him to bridge the gap between the two races and change Columbia for the better.

Me encanta. Conozco bien la villa de Santiago de Cuba y me apasiona su cultura. Fátima es una gran maestra del teatro, una gran mujer, la admiro. Conozco bien a Marino Wilson y José Aguiles. El extracto de su documental me gusto muchísimo y quisiera verlo en su totalidad y enseñarlo a los amigos de Santiago de Cuba con los cuales intercambio. Cómo sería posible ? Saludos desde Francia (me voy a Santiago el 5 de marzo). Señora Cordones Cook,vVí en su Web su trabajo impresionante. Varias obras me interesan.
