🎬 BDI Board Member and filmmaker Judge Williams was honored to attend the premiere of Fish Fry & Fellowship at the Sarasota Film Festival.

Judge Williams also served as a producer on the film, and both he and the BDI were credited in the production, with BDI also acknowledged as a supporter.

He joined a thoughtful panel discussion on a film that goes beyond a church fish fry in Palmetto to explore how everyday traditions carry history, and create space for understanding.

At its heart, the documentary reflects life in a community still shaped by the legacy of segregation, and how shared spaces like the fish fry at St. Andrews AME Church can soften barriers and foster real connection.

We’re proud to support storytelling that shows reconciliation happens in real moments, between real people. 🍽️✨

Just dropped a new piece for WSLR, about Fighting for Florida, a film I viewed at the Sarasota Film Festival this past week.

On camera, behind the mic, and honestly really proud of how this one turned out.
