PORTIA TAKES ON THE BLACKBELT
ABOUT THE SHOW
In an age where just about everyone is constantly fed information, ideas, and news, Portia Shepherd believed it was important that ALL voices be heard. Not only heard, but understood. Shepherd wanted to create an outlet for the people in the Blackbelt of Alabama. On May 17, 2016, after attending a city council meeting in Greensboro, Alabama, "Portia Takes on the Blackbelt" was born. Portia attended the meeting and thought someone should be covering it. Outside of local weekly newspapers, there is NO visual coverage of what happens in the Blackbelt from the people's perspective. In turn, there is no way to tell 'the other side' of the conversation. After having multiple conversations with community members and family, "Portia Takes on the Blackbelt" was created and has been viewed and shared on Facebook and YouTube reaching thousands in the Blackbelt of the Alabama community.
