Brittany Chrishawn
Award-Winning Filmmaker, Musician, Activist, and Advocate for Justice
Brittany Chrishawn Moore is an award-winning filmmaker, passionate storyteller, and dedicated activist for justice reform. With over a decade of experience, Brittany’s work blends creative storytelling with a deep commitment to raising awareness about police brutality and systemic injustice.
Her journey as a filmmaker took a pivotal turn in May 2020, following a traumatic encounter with officers from the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office (JSO), where excessive force left her with broken teeth and nerve damage. This event not only fueled her passion for justice reform but also inspired her current documentary project, Unbroken Smile, which delves into her personal story while shining a light on the broader issues of police brutality in America.
Creating Impact Through Film
Throughout her career, Brittany Chrishawn has directed and produced numerous films, each a testament to the power of visual storytelling to drive conversations and inspire meaningful change. Brittany’s production, Illville, gained recognition for ironically predating her real-life trauma. The film explores police brutality and is now streaming on Tubi and Amazon Prime Video. It has been mentioned in media sources like Wikipedia and Atlanta Black Star.
Her documentary Unbroken Smile also continues to draw attention, earning a feature in Black Enterprise, as it reflects her dedication to using film as a tool for social impact. It is not only a reflection of her personal fight for justice but also a voice for others who have been silenced. Through these projects, Brittany amplifies stories that resonate with broader themes of systemic injustice and resilience.
Music
In addition to her work as a filmmaker and activist, Brittany has been creating music for over a decade. Music has been a key outlet for her to express emotions, tell stories, and connect with audiences. Her music, much like her films, seeks to uplift, inspire, and foster conversations around themes of resilience, love, justice, and the power of community.
Brittany’s musical style blends genres such as hip hop, R&B, and soul, with personal storytelling at its core. Her sound is heavily influenced by artists who have used their platforms to challenge injustice and spark social change. Brittany’s music serves as another medium through which she amplifies her advocacy for justice and reform.
