IN THE BUBBLE WITH JAIME is focused on Jaime Harrison’s 2020 campaign for US Senate in South Carolina. Directed by Orangeburg native Emily Harrold, the film is an in-depth look at the challenges that Harrison faced running for office and how his campaign handled the racial dynamics of Southern politics.

46 Hope Road will provide voter registration opportunities and speak with audiences about how they can get civically engaged. A Non-partisan post screening conversation will focus on voter engagement, historical trends, and the experiences of communities of color in South Carolina. The conversation will specifically look at non-partisan engagement efforts in the Florence area.

“I started 46 Hope Road in the wake of the 2020 election because I wanted to engage those in our state who have traditionally been overlooked by campaigns and political parties,” notes 46 Hope Road founder Christale Spain. “I am excited about using a locally produced documentary film to bring out people, start conversations, and get more people registered in our communities.”

This screening follows two previous screenings of the film in Columbia and Orangeburg that featured Jaime Harrison, Bre Maxwell, Christale Spain and representatives from the NAACP and other local organizations.
