Tracy “Twinkie” Byrd with Cast and Crew talk The Counter: 1960 on iTalk Movies
iTalk movies is a long-form interview series featuring leading members of the film community. In this episode, our host Chae Jones interviews Tracy “Twinkie” Byrd, Jerrod Haynes, Etienne Maurice & Tabitha Brown about The Counter: 1960 on the Popcorn Talk Network.
Tracy “Twinkie” Byrd makes her directorial debut. The Counter: 1960 is the story of six friends working to make a difference in the world they live in. Set in the deep south, they encounter all the challenges of that time period and during their journey employ the methods of peaceful resistance taught by James Lawson, in an attempt to achieve their goals.
This story, beautiful in its simplicity, showcases how far we have come and highlights our appreciation for every person who fought, marched, protested, sat, stood, sang, played, ran, resisted, and existed for our civil rights. That’s also where this story correlates to present day and allows us to see how far we still have to go.
