About the Black Rose Awards
The Black Rose Awards serve as a tribute to Black History Month. The awards are sponsored by the Black Culture Foundation, a non-profit established in 1968 by a small group of individuals who felt that our school systems have failed to include Black history studies in regular curriculums nationwide. As a result, all students miss the chance to learn more about this crucial part of our country’s history.
The Black Culture Foundation’s noble purpose is to kindle an interest in and deeper appreciation of Black culture, raise community awareness about the achievements of Black individuals, past and present, and organize an annual Black History Month parade and associated cultural events. Furthermore, the foundation seeks to transcend cultural barriers by uniting the local community and celebrating this event with unity and brotherhood.
The Black Rose Awards are the Foundation’s showcase cultural event.
The film “Witchez” is shooting in Downtown Riverside. Actresses Heaven Gray, India Camille Glover, and Sarah Cantero at the Mission Galleria discuss the benefits of being a witch in Riverside, California.
RIVERSIDE, Calif.—A new dark comedy is filming in downtown Riverside. The feature film “Witchez” is the brainchild of Director, Writer, and Producer Sarah Cantero, along with her co-producers Ilana Regalado and Heaven Gray. Their lead Director of Photography is 24-year-old Giacomo Centty.
According to Cantero, this production defies Hollywood’s male-driven norms by placing women in creative roles, including producer, director, and actor. Their work aspires to bring more women into the behind-the-scenes part of filmmaking while jumpstarting the film industry in Riverside.
The filmmakers spearheading this effort created “Witchez.” collaboratively using community involvement, local resources, and a true sense of creative partnership.
“Witchez’s” goal is to tap into the lucrative genre of iconic witch movies, like “The Craft,” which grossed $55.6 million worldwide, and “The Witch,” which earned more than $40 million.
The producers believe that “Witchez” has the same potential to become a significant success, elevating those who helped bring it to life.
Witchez actresses, left to right: Heaven Gray, Sarah Cantero, and India Camille Glover on the streets of Riverside, California.
“We enthusiastically invite those who celebrate the arts and creativity to join in the fun and become part of this groundbreaking project,” said Producer Sarah Cantero.
“We are filmmakers dedicated to making movies that tell stories to entertain people, foster collaboration, and deliver a unique vision of horror and its similarities to daily life,” said Ilana Regalado.
True to its co-op nature, the filmmakers are crowd-sourcing the $55,000 to make the film through GoFundMe. “All contributions—whether time, energy or financial—are rewarded with a percentage of the film’s final profit. This isn’t just about creating a movie; it’s about building something long-lasting for the community,” said Cantero.
While 2023 was seen as the year of women in the film industry with the success of “Barbie,” “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour,” and “Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé,” a recent USC Annenberg study shows no significant gains for women in 2023. Women represent only 6% of Hollywood directors, which these producers are determined to change.
The survey shows that in 2023, out of 116 directors, 12.1% were women, an increase from 2007, when the percentage was 2.7%. Yet, there’s little to celebrate, given that in 2022, 9% of top box office directors were women.
“We see this as a community film with a powerful outcome—the inclusion of women in filmmaking while creating an asset that belongs to the people who contribute to its creation,” said Cantero. “This is an opportunity for everyone involved to create art, build a new film community, and profit from their participation.”
Donations are being accepted via the GoFundMe link to support the film’s mission and join Riverside’s growing art movement.
“Funds raised will cover essential production costs such as props, costumes, and location fees. Most importantly, contributions will help foster a new era of artistic collaboration and progressive history in Riverside,” said Cantero.
The Witchez Film Co-op is a collaborative group of Riverside area filmmakers dedicated to making films that tell stories to unite people, foster collaboration, and deliver an accessible vision of life and its complexities to the public.

Dr. Joyce Ladner, former President of Howard University, and Dakira Williams, candidate for Rialto Unified School District Board
Rialto, CA. — In a heartfelt effort to enrich the educational experiences of students and community members alike, Dakira Williams, candidate for Rialto Unified School District Board of Education, Trustee Area 1, hosted a community gathering focused on promoting literacy through oral history and primary source artifacts. The event occurred in Rialto, drawing diverse attendees eager to engage with history uniquely and powerfully.
The highlight of the evening was an inspiring lecture by Dr. Joyce Ladner, former President of Howard University and a distinguished member of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC). Dr. Ladner shared her experiences as a young advocate during the 1963 March on Washington, providing attendees with an intimate glimpse into one of the most pivotal moments in the Civil Rights Movement. Her story, as depicted in the recent film *Rustin*, captivated the audience, bringing history to life that resonated deeply with all who attended.
The movie *Rustin*, which premiered at the Telluride Film Festival on August 31, 2023, and later screened at the Toronto International Film Festival, tells the true story of Bayard Rustin, a key organizer of the March on Washington and a close collaborator with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Dr. Ladner’s involvement in this historic event, as portrayed in the film, added a rich layer of context and authenticity to her lecture.
In addition to Dr. Ladner’s compelling presentation, the event featured a mini workshop facilitated by Hardy Brown II, Executive Director of Footsteps to Freedom. Brown’s workshop focused on using primary source artifacts and documents from the Civil Rights era. It offered attendees a hands-on experience that deepened their understanding of the historical context surrounding the March on Washington.
“Understanding our history through the words and experiences of those who lived it is crucial to fostering a deeper connection to our past,” said Dakira Williams. “This event was about more than just learning facts; it was about engaging with history to spark curiosity, encourage critical thinking, and promote literacy in our community. I’m honored to have had the opportunity to host such an enriching experience for the people of Rialto.”
Williams, an advocate for quality education and community engagement, has made it her mission to bring unique and impactful learning opportunities to the residents of Rialto. This community gathering is part of her broader campaign to enhance educational outcomes in the Rialto Unified School District, focusing on literacy, numeracy, and post-secondary and career education.
The event also encouraged community members to take an active role in their education by exploring primary sources and oral histories. Attendees left with a greater appreciation for the power of storytelling and the importance of preserving and learning from the past.
As the evening concluded, Williams expressed her gratitude to Dr. Ladner, Hardy Brown II, and all who attended. “Tonight was a reminder of the strength and resilience of our community,” Williams said. “Together, we can ensure that our children learn about history and draw inspiration from it to shape a brighter future.”
