The From The Bottom Up Foundation, Inc. in association with AIB TV is proud to welcome women, partners, and collaborators to WIRF TV; an initiative created to help empower Black female content creators, writers, directors, producers, entertainment execs and talent, in front of the camera and behind the scenes! WIRF TV is designed to redress the inequities women of color face in the media daily. Our mission is to provide women content creators with platforms and resources to create, own and distribute content that not only entertains, but also uplifts, educates, informs and inspires.
WIRF aims to change the negative and toxic narratives about minority women through the creation of a national infrastructure that provides female content creators with platforms and resources to create, own and distribute content that not only entertains, but also uplifts, educates, informs and inspires. Research has shown that the inclusion of women in media is essential to address racial and gender biases and inequities in employment, salaries and influence. Using a holistic model, WIRF, will serve as a content development incubator that will empower current and future content creators by arming them with the tools and resources needed to demand equity, equality and socioeconomic freedom. Programs will provide innovative, high quality “edutainment”, that is entertaining, informative and shows realistic aspects of life & culture, including mental, physical, spiritual & financial health. WIRF will also create platforms for politics, news and information that impacts women’s families and communities.
Peerspace is on a mission to bring people together. We believe it is impossible to achieve that goal unless we also fight for equality and access to resources in the communities we serve.
Having a space to gather, create, and exchange ideas is an important part of any movement. In order to magnify voices that are often quieted, Peerspace will sponsor venues for people who challenge prejudice and fight for social justice and equality.
Each quarter, we will sponsor space for three projects that are relevant to our community. These projects can range from fundraisers and educational initiatives to art exhibits and photo series.
