Projects, such as the Ford Foundation-funded Masculinity Project and NMI: Africa, have brought new communities of users online and created new demand for deep resources around Africa, the informal economy, black masculinity and other critical subject areas. Jacquie is also a Peabody Award-winning writer, director and producer of documentary films. Her film credits include Africans in America and Matters of Race for PBS, From Behind Closed Doors: Sex in the 20th Century for Showtime and The World Before Us for the History Channel.
