Naturi Naughton-Lewis talks “Abducted at an HBCU: A Black Girl Missing Movie”
SUMMARY: Lewis joined me to discuss a new film, “Abducted at an HBCU,” which highlights the issue of missing Black girls. The title initially attracted Lewis, but the script, featuring a strong female character who is both a mother and a student advisor, solidified her interest. The film aims to raise awareness about sex trafficking and the lack of media coverage for missing Black girls compared to their white counterparts. Lewis hopes the film will inspire community involvement and resource allocation. She also discussed her roles in other projects, including producing and directing films focusing on important social issues, further expanding her artistic repertoire.
