About Power in Belonging
VietRISE and partner organizations in central Orange County created “Power in Belonging” to tell the unheard stories of Latinx and Vietnamese communities joining together to demand a more representative and responsive government. The three six-minute videos, offered in English with subtitles in Spanish and Vietnamese, tell the unlikely story of local leaders and residents coming together to bridge across tricky divides – of generation, racial and ethnic identity, and language.
The documentary-style videos were created through Orange County community organizations’ partnership in the Blueprint for Belonging project, a statewide collaborative focused on bridging divides to overcome exclusion and inequality that is anchored at the Othering and Belonging Institute (OBI) at UC Berkeley. VietRISE, Harbor Institute for Economic and Immigrant Justice, El Centro Cultural de México, and Tenants United Santa Ana are featured in the videos, which were produced by Time of Day Media.
