#blacklove #marriage #storytelling
A few weeks ago, I sat down with my grandparents to discuss their 61 year marriage - how they met and started a family, and advice they have for their younger selves/for newlyweds. I also included footage of my family throughout the 60s, 70s and 90s - shoutout to my grandpop for documenting it all! I hope you enjoy this video, and happy 61st anniversary to my grandparents! I really wanted to celebrate their story and I am grateful that they agreed to tell it on camera.
thanks to my sister for helping me film this video!
