We are thrilled to announce the completion of filming for our inaugural digital series, "MEN LIKE US" this past October! Over a span of two weeks in New York, a dedicated team comprising more than 60 production staff, crew, and actors came together to shoot four captivating episodes. The series was conceived and nurtured by JAG’s Associate Artists Director, Sideeq Heard, the creator, writer, and director. He collaborated closely with Co-Creator Donathan Walters, Associate Producer Khadija Roane, and talented writers Jarvis Matthews and Tevin Scott.
At its core, "MEN LIKE US" resonates with our company's unwavering commitment to bringing more compassion, empathy, and love into the world by telling stories that challenge hierarchies of race, gender, class, and sexuality.
