Music, Film, and Choosing Your Weapon

Martin Hawk joins the podcast to discuss his career shift from full-time musician to filmmaker, having spent the last year documenting the fight for human rights in Rochester, NY. His first short documentary "A Litany for Survival" premiered at the Portland Film Festival and was picked up by NBC Universal for streaming on their Xfinity on Demand platform. Hawk's feature length documentary, "Pressure Gradient," is currently in production, and explores the shades between love, rage, and rebellion as a black person surviving in Rochester, NY. We cover this and other topics related to work, identity, and art as they manifest internally and as they impact our communities.
