Michael D. Francis is on the board of Continuity, a 501(c)3 organization expanding diversity in media production through skills-based training, mentorship, and opportunities for untapped talent. Their mission is to expand diversity in media production through skills-based training, mentorship, and opportunities for untapped talent that allows for collaboration on projects that share diverse and underrepresented voices.
Media, film, and broadcasting industries need to reflect the diversity of the neighborhoods they document. In St. Louis, our city, region, and state are worth investing in and growing dynamic creators and media production professionals.

Those who have gone before them should lend a helping hand through mentorship as they learn the ropes and rise to the top.
