About the Project | Project ñ is a multi-media project focused on creating new conversations that reinvent the way we view culture and interpret diversity in our lives. Through film, workshops and live community engagements, Project ñ bridges the gap between culture and place and facilitates Radical Cultural Self-Awareness, a present-moment introspection of culture, identity and self. Founded by first-time Latina filmmaker Denise Soler Cox and Henry Ansbacher, Oscar-nominated documentary veteran, Project ñ produces and distributes rich and poignant Latino content via various consumer-facing platforms including:

*being ñ short-subject documentary
*micro-documentary video series
*filmmakers podcast
*cultural discussion guides
*cultural workbooks
*live public engagements

The central organizing principle of the Project is that first-generation American born Latinos or ñs, share a distinct identity, shaped by their experience growing up between two cultures. Their home culture reflects the heritage and traditions of their family’s country of origin and is often in conflict with the mainstream American culture they experience beyond those four walls. Many ñs don’t feel fully connected to either culture – not “American enough” among Americans and not “Latino enough” among Latinos. This leaves many ñs feeling like they don’t truly belong anywhere; but by driving awareness of this shared ñ experience, and giving it a name, Project ñ is transforming this source of alienation into a source of empowerment, belonging and cultural awakening.


Your Support Makes a Difference | Project ñ is committed to bringing this cultural conversation to organizations, classrooms and communities around the world. Your donation will help us continue telling our collective story and creating more representative content to advance the ñ and Latino conversation forward. Specifically, it will help us fund the feature-length film; create a cultural workbook series for ñs, produce more ñ micro-docs and subsidize screening costs for eligible organizations. Please consider supporting us!

Non-Profit | Project ñ is part of Just Media Fund, a 501(c)(3) non-profit. Just Media strives to raise awareness of social justice and environmental issues in the broadcast audience through the development and production of innovative and compelling media projects.
