<h3>TRUE NORTH</h3>
Directed by Michèle Stephenson
TRUE NORTH journeys into 1960s Montreal, tracing a pivotal period of Black resistance through the 1968 Congress of Black Writers and the Sir George Williams Affair. Through archival footage and first-person testimony, filmmaker Michèle Stephenson connects Black struggles in Canada with movements across the Caribbean and the United States, revealing a history of resistance, solidarity, and collective action that crossed borders.
<h3>FILMMAKER-TO-FILMMAKER CONVERSATION</h3>
Following the screening, Michèle Stephenson joins filmmaker Alain Martin, director of The Forgotten Occupation, for a filmmaker-to-filmmaker conversation about the making of TRUE NORTH. Together, they will discuss the research, relationships, archival work, creative choices, financing, and persistence required to carry an ambitious documentary from its earliest ideas to the screen.

Berkeley College’s 11th annual Women’s Entrepreneurship Week event brings together student entrepreneurs and women- and minority-led community businesses to learn, connect, and turn ideas into action. This year’s theme, “The Smart Hustle: AI for Small Business,” will share best practices on how aspiring entrepreneurs can use AI in ways that are practical, accessible, and immediately useful – not as another technology buzzword, but as a tool that can help small business owners save time, reduce costs, improve marketing and operations, and compete more effectively.
