Produced and directed over a period of eleven years, seven of which were full time,
NO! explores the international reality of rape, other forms of sexual assault and healing
through the first person testimonies, scholarship, spirituality, activism, and cultural
work of African-Americans. This groundbreaking, award-winning documentary also
explores how rape is used as a weapon of homophobia.

"If the Black community in the Americas and in the world would save itself,
it must complete the work this film begins."
-- Alice Walker, Pulitzer Prize Winning Author, The Color Purple
"This well-done documentary had a powerful impact…the post-viewing community
discussion was so inspiring that the National Sexual Violence Resource Center
designated showings of NO! in community settings as the Featured Event for its
2007 National Sexual Assault Awareness Month campaign."
-- Karen Baker, LMSW, Director, National Sexual Violence Resource Center
