Otis’ Dream
Otis' dream was to vote. He never got the chance. Voting is a sacred right. Exercise Yours. For resources on voting: otisdream.com/votingresources #votethedream
The film was marketed in the weeks prior to the election with great success. It screened in over 500 churches across the nation and gained attention from major media outlets, including Joy Reid on MSNBC, Angela Rye, Shaun King and by Oprah on Facebook live as part of her SuperSoul Sunday programming. The film is also now an official SuperSoul short film.
Oprah's channels alone garnered over 470,000 views and nearly 9,000 comments, inspiring many to #VoteTheDream.
