Our mission is the disruption of the master narrative with good storytelling. We understand the master narrative as structural violence in all of its many mutations. We are storytellers and we use our artistic platforms – art, education, film, television, live and digital entertainment – to bring about cultural change, utilizing movement intelligence to disseminate unifying narratives to combat structural violence.
By amplifying futuristic perspectives on intergenerational well-being, we seek to introduce counter-narratives to the conventional perspectives that normally dominate mainstream airwaves.
Since our inception, chromatic black™ (https://chromaticblack.org/) has supported artistry and amplified strategic campaigns by partnering with filmmakers, creative entrepreneurs, movement leaders, cultural bearers, and creative place makers.
