Reframing the Narrative: Stories of Legacy, Liberation, and Lineage


Presented by the My Creative Journey Residency | Beyond the Line by Rose Sanchez


Join us for Reframing the Narrative, a powerful evening of thought-provoking conversations, art, and community, centered on the rich and resilient stories of the Black experience in San Diego. This immersive event is part of Beyond the Line, the current San Diego Made Factory My Creative Journey Residency by filmmaker Rose Sanchez, which explores the intersection of history, storytelling, and community empowerment.

The Line represents the long-standing systems of redlining and structural inequality. Beyond is about breaking through those barriers—reclaiming space, shaping new narratives, and building generational wealth and identity within the Black community.

What to Expect: 🗣️ Three engaging talks from key Black community voices:

  • Ramel Wallace: The San Diego Black Experience
  • Herman Collins: Redlining, the Promise Zone, and Our Historical Footprint
  • Rose Sanchez: Film and Art as a Vessel for Black History

🎨 Enjoy a curated selection of Black artist vendors, showcasing and selling original works that reflect the evening’s themes of resistance, resilience, and vision.

This event is more than a lecture series—it’s a living archive, a creative gathering space, and an invitation to reimagine what legacy and liberation can look like when the community authors its own story.

Free and open to all. Come ready to listen, reflect, and connect.
