Q & A with director of Becoming Black Lawyers: Eva Q & A with director of Becoming Black Lawyers: Evangeline Mitchell. From Becoming Black Lawyers: African Americans and the Law School Experience - "< 8% of all law students are black - approximately 5% of all lawyers in the United Sates identify as Black or African American" A call was put out on social media for black lawyers willing to share their story of becoming lawyers and this documentary is a result of the answering of that call. Having the director Evangeline Mitchell attend the festival in person and engage in an enlightening Q & A session was a memorable plus!  Ms Mitchell's directorial debut as a documentary filmmaker is pretty impressive as it was a well crafted, well told and aesthetically pleasing film that showcased black lawyers in all their excellence. Stay tuned for more clips from our 2025 Q & A’s! #africanfilmfestatl2025 #affatl2025 #becomingblacklawyers #blacklawyers #tellingourowntales
