The O Show documentary is SELECTED!

We are so proud and honoured to announce that Human Biography founder Sharad Kharé has won a 2020 Telus Storyhive Local Heroes Documentary grant! This journey began last fall, when he pitched the documentary short, “The O Show” to Telus Storyhive.

The O Show spotlights the inspiring work and extraordinary life of Afro-Indigenous Two-Spirited BC community leader Orene Askew. She works as a motivational speaker and DJ, and helps bring opportunities to particularly Black, Indigenous, and Two-Spirited peoples. Through this documentary, Orene reflects on her community leadership during the Vancouver BLM marches. Audiences will also get to learn about Orene’s eight week show at Pride 2020 and her involvement with the Squamish Nation Council.

We can’t wait to help share Orene’s inspiring story with the world by working on a project that will certainly be a highlight of 2021.
