This campaign spot for Bernie Sanders’ U.S. presidential run was crafted entirely from archival footage, generously contributed by its original creators.

Set to the poetry of Audre Lorde, voiced by Mahogany L. Browne, the piece seeks to bridge generations through the shared struggle for American rights and freedoms.

More video art than traditional campaign content, its uniqueness lies in that very choice. The piece blends textures from analog and digital formats, using black-and-white footage, grain, and rhythm to evoke memory, urgency, and timelessness.

The editing aimed to illustrate Lorde’s words in a symbolic and poetic way—steering away from literalism to create an emotional space where viewers could reflect and interpret freely.

The result is a moving, unconventional campaign piece that resonated with audiences beyond the political sphere, celebrated for its artistic courage and cultural depth.
