WHAT IT MEANS TO BE AMERICAN: PRIVATE SCREENING & COMMUNITY SHOWCASE
Join us for an exclusive evening celebrating storytelling, culture, entrepreneurship, and the diverse voices that shape America.
Be among the first to experience Episode One of What It Means to Be American, an independent documentary series created by filmmaker and photographer Matthew Osborne. Through intimate conversations with people from different backgrounds, identities, cultures, and life experiences, the series explores a simple yet powerful question:
What does it mean to be American?
The evening will feature:
• A private screening of Episode One
• An exclusive first look at the official documentary trailer
• A gallery showcase featuring the work of Black artists from Dallas
• Featured Black-owned businesses and entrepreneurs from across the DFW community
• Networking, conversation, and community connection
• A Q&A with filmmaker Matthew Osborne
What It Means to Be American explores the duality of identity in America, the pride and the pain, the hope and the struggle, the protest and the patriotism. Through honest conversations and powerful imagery, the project creates space for stories that are often overlooked while celebrating the richness of our shared humanity.
Whether you’re an artist, entrepreneur, community leader, or simply someone who believes in the power of storytelling, this evening is an opportunity to connect, reflect, and be part of an important conversation.
Pride and protest, two sides of the same flag.
