You need to hear everybody's stories to understand what would be helpfiul to make lives better. The whole point of film and culture is to try to walk in other people's shoes, to understand our similarities and our differences.
People need to feel heard; they need their erperiences to be seen and heard.

As much we're entitled to say that our voices are important, the workplace tells us that the way we look is still more important than what we have to say.
