WATCH

This film follows the grassroots campaigns of six women of color running for political office during the contentious 2018 United States midterm elections. Produced by female filmmakers of color, the documentary offers a behind-the-scenes glimpse of these women leaders whose personal motivations, political coalitions, and ground-level activism steamroll the expectations of their opponents and of the broader public — defying traditional notions of what it means to be a U.S. politician in the process.

A co-production of POV and ITVS. A co-presentation of Black Public Media and the Center for Asian American Media.

Film running time is 40 mins. Watch the trailer for And She Could be Next.
