Jeannie Mai Instagram – Last week, surrounded by an incredible circle of friends, we had the privilege of hosting a screening for ‘Origin,’ directed by the visionary @ava. Inspired by the powerful book ‘Caste,’ (written by @isabelwilkerson❤️) this film left us in awe. We are profoundly moved and awakened to the deep-seated structures that shape our world. This is not just a movie; it’s a mirror to the our past and present….and its a guide to our FUTURE. We live in a world where silent (and sometimes also very loudly spoken) hierarchies divide us. This film has the power to transcend and bring us back together. Ava DuVernay has woven a narrative so compelling, so vital, that it’s more than just storytelling – it’s your invitation to build connection and impact change in real time. ‘Origin’ is a heart opening experience, testament to the urgent need for empathy and unity in our times. We urge you, with every fiber of our beings, to go watch this movie! Share it with everyone you love! Our future – and a more inclusive, just, and compassionate world – depends on it. Thank you @ava @aunjanueellis @niecynash1 for this masterpiece!
