I'm really excited to release the following music video I completed with Sierra Leonean superstar group, Bajah + The Dry Eye Crew.
"Give Peace a Chance" was produced to promote peaceful elections
in Sierra Leone, coming up on November 17th. There is already rising
tensions in the country in anticipation of the elections so this song and music video is being used to encourage youth to not be swayed into violence.
Today, our music video made the top story on Sierra Express Media. Check it out:

This project was exciting for me as it confirms the power of collaborating with local artists who have incredible influence in societies affected by pressing global health and development issues I cover in my films. I'll be sharing more about an initiative I am developing working with these artists (musicians, filmmakers, poets, etc) but in the meantime, enjoy the music video and feel free to share and forward.
