DARESHA KYI

BATTLEGROUND GEORGIA

Daresha directed this feature for MSNBC Films, as part of The Turning Point documentary series from Executive Producer Trevor Noah. The film breaks down the pivotal role played by Georgia based grassroots organizers in leading the charge to motivate voters to turn out in record smashing numbers in 2020 and 2021 as well as how they fought the national backlash. It also provides a rich analysis of the complex history of voting across the American South.
