COCO Virtual Screening: How To Solve a Murder: The Legacy of Unsolved Violence

Join the Creatives of Color Oregon (COCO) initiative for a virtual screening of Help Solve a Murder. This powerful project, created by filmmaker and advocate Asianique Savage, is a six-part docuseries that centers on the Black mothers and families in Portland, OR fighting for justice in the face of unsolved gun violence.

Savage – who serves as the Director of Gun Violence Prevention at the Alliance for a Safe Oregon and is the Co-Founder of the non-profit Senseless Violence Leads to Silence – brings a deeply personal perspective to the screen, having lost both her mother and brother to violence.

The screening will be followed by a live Q&A with Savage to discuss the film’s mission, the role of community-led activism, and how we can collectively demand accountability in a broken system.
