Brave New Voices is an Emmy-nominated, two-part series exploring the stories, perspectives, and experiences of immigrants who have settled in East County just outside of Portland, Oregon. Meet this year's Brave New Voices: a young Christian woman from Jordan, a professionally trained dancer from Zimbabwe, and a career-driven family girl from Mexico.

Our biggest challenge for the second Brave New Voices video was finding participants who were willing to be on camera. Thankfully, MetroEast is deeply involved in our community through our classes and gear rentals and this is what eventually helped us recruit participants. Loveness actually has her own show on our channels!

🏆 We're delighted to say this video earned MetroEast’s very first Emmy nomination and won a national Hometown Media Award! It also went on to screen at local film festivals in Portland.

Thank you to the Gresham Art and Cultural Assistance Grant for supporting the making of this video!
