Independent filmmaker Jim Hanon shares his journey in directing the award-winning documentary Humanité, the Beloved Community.
Humanité, the Beloved Community is woven from the words, stories and original melodies of a diverse cast of artists as they channel the ethos of civil rights into a raw and compassionate bid for global harmony. Kirk Whalum was 9 years old when Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated 14 blocks from Kirk’s home in Memphis, Tennessee. In a narrative spanning from his own childhood to the thriving global music scene, Kirk collaborates with other artists on a musical journey that is self-aware, determined and inextricably connected with civil rights and Martin Luther King Jr.’s vision of the Beloved Community.
