Dear Shaded Viewers,
Day 3 of my Sweet Sixteen started with the second edition of Climate Warriors, this year we added Climate Warriors Teens to Climate Warriors Kids. It was followed by Student Films, Mental Health in Fashion, which drew a standing room only crowd, which states the need for such a theme. Saturday was the day for the Official Selection along with Black Spectrum, Queer Archive.
