In this week's *program, host Allison Donahue (Program Manager for The Rapidian) welcomes Rodney Brown, the founder of GRMIFI. (*The Grand Rapids Media Initiative & Film Incubator)

During the program, Allison and Rodney discussed the utilization of film and media as a means to tell the untold stories of Grand Rapids, GRMIFI's role in cultivating the next generation of local filmmakers, and they explored the themes in Todd E. Robinson's book "A City within a City" and the concept of narrative justice that helps guide GRMIFI's work.

The work of the GRMIFI (The Grand Rapids Media Initiative & Film Incubator) supports dynamic storytellers, capturing diverse Grand Rapids narratives from past and present about strategizing, organizing and building to thrive amidst the zero-sum mentalities, misdirections and/or niceties about issues of race and power in this region.

*This is part one of a two-part conversation.
