WIP Vice-Chair, Allyn Elliott, Attended Arise Firebird Documentary Exclusive Showing and Q&A
The NCBA Women in the Profession & Minorities in the Profession Committees and the North Carolina Association of Women Attorneys hosted a viewing of the documentary Arise Firebird, followed by a live Q&A discussion with Jimi Okubanjo, Director and Producer of Arise Firebird, on April 16.
Arise Firebird is a powerful and unforgettable documentary that celebrates the resilience and empowerment of women and BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) professionals in the workplace. This inspiring film follows the incredible journeys of three women as they overcome inner obstacles and discover joy and strength in their professional lives. Attendees, including WIP Vice-Chair Allyn Elliott, began the evening with food, drinks, and their favorite movie theater snacks. After watching the documentary together, there was a 60-minute live Q&A to discuss and discover more about this powerful film. It was an incredible evening for all who attended!
