"Philadelphia was one of the largest cities in America where African Americans were disproportionately turned away when they tried to buy a home." Redlining exists in the form of inequitable mortgage loans acceptance rates. #bsocials18

"North Philadelphia is beautiful...[but] the first thing you hear about North Philly is the bad and the violence." @questthedoc highlights highs/lows, good/bad, in a holistic representation of real life, in a real city, with real people who have a story to tell. #bsocials18

Olshefski says that @questthedoc is an invitation to connect. I think this film does an excellent job of sharing the story of the Rainey family and North Philly. There is plenty of room for the audience to relate with many of the different story lines portrayed. #bsocials18

"I just started to connect to Quest...the root of this whole project was this relationship, this friendship." Jonathan is not grabbing the story and leaving; he becomes part of the family and the relationship was not one-sided. #bsocials18

"I just watched my daughter's life change instantly." The Rainey family graciously allowed their story to be told in order to raise awareness of violence and the need for peace and change. #bsocials18

Documentaries are incredibly invasive; trust between the subject and filmmaker is imperative. #bsocials18

"Make it simple/make it memorable/make it inviting to look at/make it easy to read" ruddyroye's aesthetic is appealing, the copy is comprehensive, and the narrative concise; memorable from the honest and relatable portrayal of humans with their own agencies. #bsocials18

"Content is king, but context is God." The ruddyroye posts depend on the context to set the scene in which the content can be given meaning; yes, each post tells a story, but why does it matter? What do they all have in common? What is the point? #bsocials18

"Tone-deaf posts [...] are justifiably ignored by most of the public" Quality > quantity. #bsocials18

Interviews should capture the subject's being in a physical, spiritual, and emotional sense. #bsocials18

When you interview someone, they will not always be direct. Accept that and remember to listen carefully to what they do or don't say. #bsocials18

How does Jena find the balance between working for the Blood:Water cause and caring for herself in a holistic manner? #bsocials18

Who is Jena more scared to let down: herself or the community she is serving? Or is it a mix of both? #bsocials18

How is Jena able to exhibit such high levels of trust with people she has never met? Is this the key to compassion -- vulnerability? #bsocials18

"My calling is to do the one more thing in front of me. And then the next. If I can step in to that, I want to be there. If stepping into this calling means stepping into hard times, I still want to be there." #bsocials18

"I decided there was nothing sweeter than showing up at a place you love, embracing people you know, and witnessing genuine joy from those you know you." I feel you Jena. #bsocials18

"Most of the women in the room were illiterate, so their knowledge of the story had to have come from someone telling them." This shows how androcentric readings of biblical texts contribute to a patriarchal society. #bsocials18

"Her story mattered. I wished I could do more for her." Nardella internally struggles with her ideation of personal action, but grows throughout her journey to see that that is not the goal but rather a roadblock. #bsocials18
