Here is a good story for the weekend, or - now!

From #Newsroom to Lens: Robin N. Hamilton’s Journey Through Documentary Filmmaking and Social Activism

Hey everyone, Marco here. You know I’m all about storytelling—the way it connects us, challenges perspectives, and shapes the world around us. This time on Audio Signals Podcast - on ITSPmagazine, I had the privilege of sitting down with Robin Hamilton, an #Emmy-winning #journalist turned #filmmaker who has dedicated her craft to shedding light on untold stories and driving meaningful change.

Robin’s journey is fascinating—starting in fast-paced newsrooms and evolving into documentary filmmaking, where she takes the time to explore complex narratives with depth and impact. Her films highlight figures like #FannieLouHamer, whose fight for #votingrights still echoes today, and #OdessaMadre, a woman whose legacy challenges our perceptions of power, crime, and opportunity.

In this episode, we dig into how Robin chooses her subjects, crafts her stories, and balances activism with artistry. We talk about the power of independent filmmaking, the responsibility of shaping narratives that matter, and why stories—when told right—can change the way we see history, society, and ourselves.

If you’re passionate about storytelling, filmmaking, or social impact, this conversation is for you.

Join us as we explore the intersection of journalism, documentaries, and the stories that need to be told.

Miami Beach Mayor Steven Meiner wants to terminate the lease and withdraw financial support for an independent local movie theater because it dared to show an Oscar-winning, multi-award winning documentary

https://apnews.com/article/israel-palestinians-theater-florida-ec35a4b011b0dec1e3465edcffed936a

Mayor of Miami cancelled the lease of a tiny community theatre because it screened the Oscar Winning documentary "No Other Land" last week.

Meiner claims the film is “an attack on Jewish people” despite the fact that half of the direction/production team is quite literally Jewish.

"Stealing a Nation" is a 2004 #documentary about the British–American clandestine operation that saw the expulsion of the Chagossian population who have lived on Diego Garcia and neighbouring islands since the late 18th century. More than 2,000 people were exiled to Mauritius between 1967 and 1973, so that Diego Garcia could become a US military airbase.

“New BBC documentary 'The Road to 7th October' is an utter travesty”

“Pressured into removing a humanising portrait of Gaza’s children, the BBC offers instead a series on Israel-Palestine that frantically revives the very narrative that made the genocide possible”
