  1. Hi Jennifer!
    Thank you very much for this post! Much appreciated! Just wanted to add that Spirits of Rebellion is now a completed documentary. It is an update from the 2011 version which was 45 minutes; the documentary is now 101 minutes and it premiered at UCLA and at the Pan African film Festival Los Angeles in February 2016. Hopefully IMDB will update soon.
    Sincerely,
    Zeinabu
