Amy James Neel - Sista in the Brotherhood 

Sista in the Brotherhood was screened at the Whitsell Auditorium at the Portland Art Musuem, Tuesday April 19 at 12:00 pm. The film was followed by a panel discussion about government policy initiatives that could support women of color in the trades.
The panel was made up of industry professionals including: Dawn Jones Redstone, Director; Dr. Roberta Hunt, Producer; Gabi Schuster, Metro Procurement Manager; Michael Burch, Community Relations with the Pacific NW Regional Council of Carpenters; Lauren Holmes, Project Manager for Lease Crutcher Lewis; and our very own Amy James Neel, Construction Manager at OTI!
This is Amy's response to governmental policies impacting the full participation of women of color in the construction industry.
