Condolences...

I have spoken on a few posts about my disdain for and battle against gun violence in America. The horrible tragedy at the Sandy Hook elementary school in Connecticut only strengthened my resolve against this epidemic. My sincerest condolences and heartfelt prayers go out to the children, parents, families and staff affected by this horror. I will do my best as a citizen and filmmaker to combat this issue. Enough is enough. Pam Son Logo Black copy

Homage to Bela, A Prelude

,

I have been debating whether or not to post this over the internet for quite some time now. I had this big filmmaker plan and strategy for it. But then I realized that I made this film to bring awareness to the issue of gun violence amongst young people of color and how this affects the community at large. So I will be offering Homage to Bela, A Prelude to all of you through the weekend. If you like it please send out the link to this post to as many people as you can via email, facebook, twitter, etc. If you know of any anti-gun violence or community organizations that you think would like this please contact me here on the comments or at randy@pamsson.com. This project means a great deal to me. I am very proud of it and all the work that was put into it. I would like to thank Jessica K. Brown, Christina Voros, Jonathan Altman, Joey Salim, Billy Green, Shane Duckworth, Karen Song, The Parchment Family, Peter Svarzbein and all the brave souls who stood out in the cold to make this happen. I am in debt to you all. You can also view the film at http://www.vimeo.com/27197895 Without further ado, I present Homage to Bela, A Prelude...
