Welcome to Rev Love Media
Rev Love Media: Collective Statement
We choose to intentionally amplify and prioritize BIPOC, Women/Femme (especially trans and GNC), LGBTQ+, people with disabilities, immigrants, refugees, low-income, working-class, and unsheltered individuals in Rev Love Media efforts and organizing.
Leading a collective vision in having faith and trust that people can transform themselves, each other, and in turn our communities. By learning from practice in both direct and indirect experience. That meets communities where they are at and learns about how they understand the world, needs and barriers they face. As well as what they would like to see happen and how they imagine that process.
Helping communities sum up their experiences through the use of media while incorporating intersectionality by understanding social forces in relation to social privilege in our efforts.
Connect community to the resources, services, tools, etc. that allow a collective and personal vision to flourish.
Land Acknowledgement
Based in the Salt Lake Valley, Rev Love Media acknowledges that this region has always been a sacred gathering place for Indigenous peoples. This land, named for the Ute Tribe, is the traditional and ancestral homelands of the Shoshone, Paiute, Goshute, and Ute Tribes. We honor Utah’s Indigenous peoples, their enduring stewardship, and their historical and present contributions to our community.
We are committed to amplifying the voices of historically marginalized communities, fostering meaningful partnerships, and respecting cultural heritage. We also recognize the global struggles of Indigenous and displaced peoples and stand in solidarity with their efforts to reclaim their lands, rights, and identities.
Through our storytelling and community engagement, we pledge to continue educating ourselves and our audience about the experiences of Indigenous and displaced peoples. By acknowledging the past and working collaboratively, we aim to contribute to a future where all communities thrive.
