SCORE's Commitment to Equity in Media and the Fight to Eradicate Racism

At SCORE, our mission is rooted in the fight against systemic racism and the promotion of social justice and equity. We understand that one of the most powerful tools in creating lasting change is media. It has the ability to shape perceptions, challenge biases, and give voice to those who have been historically silenced. That’s why we are proud to support organizations like OnWatch TV, whose work in elevating marginalized voices and telling stories that matter aligns perfectly with our vision for a more equitable society.

Media as a Catalyst for Social Change

SCORE is committed to eradicating racism and advancing racial equity in all facets of society, including media. We believe that the stories we share and the narratives we amplify can drive conversations and inspire meaningful action. OnWatch TV is a prime example of how media can be used as a tool to challenge oppressive systems and inspire change.

Through documentaries, student projects, and coverage of community events, OnWatch TV highlights stories that are often overlooked by mainstream media. These stories—whether exploring the struggles of marginalized communities, the journeys of fathers returning to college, or the importance of mental health—create opportunities for dialogue, education, and social change. OnWatch TV’s dedication to elevating voices that are too often left out of the mainstream is a powerful example of how media can be used to break down barriers and create a more just society.

Supporting Equity in Media Education

At SCORE, we believe that media education is essential in the fight for social justice. It’s not enough to simply consume media; we must also create media that reflects the diverse experiences and perspectives of our communities. That’s why we actively support initiatives that provide young people, particularly those from underrepresented backgrounds, with the tools and opportunities to develop their skills in media production.

OnWatch TV’s efforts to use film as a learning tool—whether in classrooms or community settings—are helping to educate the next generation of media creators, activists, and change-makers. By providing young people with the opportunity to create their own content and share their stories, we are giving them the power to challenge the status quo and push for equity in media representation. These stories spark important conversations about race, history, and the fight for equality, and they provide young people with the agency to shape the future they want to see.

The Importance of Diverse Voices in Media

SCORE’s mission to eradicate racism is inherently tied to our belief in the importance of diverse voices in media. Historically, the voices of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) have been marginalized in mainstream media, contributing to harmful stereotypes and a lack of representation. At SCORE, we are committed to amplifying these voices and ensuring that the stories of BIPOC communities are heard, respected, and celebrated.

OnWatch TV’s work to showcase the lived experiences of marginalized individuals is exactly the kind of media representation we support. Whether it’s through highlighting the resilience of Black fathers returning to school or sharing the powerful journeys of those navigating systemic inequalities, OnWatch TV is creating a space for voices that have been overlooked and underrepresented. These stories are not just important—they are essential to understanding the complexity of racial justice and the ongoing struggle for equity.

Building Bridges Through Media

Media is not just a tool for storytelling—it’s a bridge that connects people, cultures, and communities. At SCORE, we recognize the role media plays in building empathy, fostering understanding, and creating a sense of shared responsibility in the fight for social justice. That’s why we are proud to support OnWatch TV and other organizations that are using their platforms to educate, inspire, and connect communities through powerful storytelling.

Through their films, OnWatch TV is helping to build bridges between diverse communities, sparking important conversations about race, identity, and justice. By providing creators of all ages with the opportunity to share their truths and perspectives, OnWatch TV is fostering a culture of inclusivity and empowerment—one that values the experiences of everyone, regardless of race, background, or identity.

SCORE’s Commitment to Action

SCORE’s commitment to eradicating racism goes beyond words—it’s embedded in everything we do. From our work in education to our support for community initiatives and media projects, we are committed to creating a more equitable society. We believe that media is a powerful tool for social change, and we will continue to support organizations like OnWatch TV that are using their platforms to make a difference.

We call on everyone who shares our belief in racial justice and equity to get involved. Whether it’s through submitting content, volunteering for a media project, or simply sharing the stories that matter, every action contributes to the larger movement for social change.
