On the weekend of August 16 – 17, 2025, we are inviting folks all over the country to celebrate The 30th Anniversary of The Color of Fear – The Conversation Continues with a free showing of The Color of Fear and hosting a discussion afterwards.
StirFry Seminars will provide a FREE limited 3-day film link and instructions for all those wishing to show the film in their homes, churches, synagogues, theaters, community centers and classrooms.
Over 30 million viewers from around the world have seen The Color of Fear since it premiered in 1995. When it was released folks all over the country ran down hallways astounded at how profoundly real and honest this unscripted film depicted what it would truly take to have a real conversation on race.
Months later, Oprah Winfrey aired a two-hour special on The Color of Fear that was viewed by over 15 million folks. Cornel West called it the best film on race in the 21st century.
Today, The Color of Fear is needed now more than ever before. We are threatened daily by efforts to end any funding for diversity trainings, as well as the banning of any books in our classrooms and agencies that endeavors to promote or support equity or any conversations about discrimination or social injustice. The silence is deafening.
It is my belief that not talking about and embracing our differences has plagued this country since its inception. What The Color of Fear exemplified was how our differences are beautiful and could bring us together, not apart. As Virginia Wolfe once wrote: “We are all different. What divides or brings us together is the value we place on those differences.”

We will not be silenced. We cannot be silenced. We have come too far to go back. Too many of our communities have given their lives so that our children could someday live in a world where their voices could be heard and valued for all of who they are and embraced for the unique gifts that we each bring.
The conversation begins with each of us…
