Our Mission

Hiztorical Vision Productions, a 501(C)(3) nonprofit organization based in Opelika, Alabama, is dedicated to fostering positive change within local communities across Alabama. By collaborating closely with these communities, HVP endeavors to produce impactful short-film documentaries that shine a light on the often overlooked and underrepresented African American history within the region.

Our mission extends beyond mere storytelling; we strive to safeguard and honor the rich tapestry of African American heritage, preserving it for future generations. Through the transformative power of filmmaking, we not only educate the public but also empower and uplift marginalized communities. By amplifying the triumphs and resilience of African Americans, we seek to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation of our shared history.

Each project undertaken by Hiztorical Vision Productions serves as a beacon of inspiration, igniting dialogue and catalyzing social change. By bringing to life the untold narratives of Black history through engaging short films, we endeavor to inspire individuals from all walks of life. Our ultimate aim is to promote unity, empathy, and progress within our communities, fostering a brighter and more inclusive future for all.
