Valerie Soe @valeriesoe is the director and producer of AUNTIE SEWING SQUAD: RESISTANCE PLAYBOOK screening at CAAMFest. What started as a small grassroots collective of primarily BIPOC women volunteers, known as the Aunties, during the Covid-19 pandemic, grew into a nationwide network of more than 800 volunteers, sewing and donating masks to historically disenfranchised communities of color.
