Are You With Me? (Louis Reyes Rivera 1945-2012)

 

This is a 10-minute film dedicated to freedom fighter Louis Reyes Rivera.  Rivera was a member of the 1969 occupation of City College, which was led by students of color and won open admissions.  He spoke to Students United for a Free CUNY at the AME Church in Harlem on October 27, 2011 before his death on March 3, 2012.  We had the honor to film what was to become one of his last public speeches.


Iva Radivojevic and Martyna Starosta are filmmakers in New York City.
