Pen Up the Pigs
Kelly Gallagher
'Pen Up the Pigs' is a handcrafted collage animation that explores connections between slavery and present day institutionalized racism and mass incarceration. Through chromatic animated histories and futures of radical collective power, the strength of left revolutionary thought and action found in every frame embeds in the viewer visual understandings of the imperative resistance required to combat racism.

From Ally To Accomplice
Kelly Gallagher
"To-day at last we know: John Brown was right." -W.E.B. Du Bois. This film is an experimental essay in three movements that explores the importance of being more than an "ally" in struggle, by sharing histories of committed accomplices John Brown, Marilyn Buck, and others. The film also delves into the history of the landscape and former prairie that was the earth on which Brown's militants trained. In the face of exploitation of people and destruction of land, radical struggle cultivates new life.
