Queens World’s Hopeful Broadcast focuses on the creators and stories that promote hope at a time when hope is needed. Creators share their experiences to inspire future generations of creatives and audiences.

Queens World’s Hopeful Broadcast gives creators a platform to talk about remaining hopeful in the face of a world gone awry.

QW asks:

How do you remain hopeful?

Where does your resilience come from?

How do current events affect your creative space?

Have you ever lost hope?

What do you hope for?

Join Executive Director Katha Cato as she talks about hope and resilience in this fourth episode with QWFF emerging creatives Ciara Kain, Sam Roppola, Rabei Javaid, and Jonelle Lightbourne.
