who we are
Greenwood District Studios a Black-Owned Movie Studio. The Studio is named after the 1921 Tulsa, Oklahoma, race riots. The area most affected was called Black Wall Street, which was in the Greenwood District. Due to the mental illness called racism, it was burned to the ground. Fast forward to 2020, and this horrific stain in our history has either been dwindled down to a myth or it simply just didn’t happen. We must never forget!
“I believe the GREENWOOD DISTRICT STUDIO project is perfectly poised to capitalize on important changes in the entertainment industry. This is a bold yet viable step in a most promising direction and I am proud to be a part of it.”
"I've been on many sets where a setback ends the whole shoot. Not these guys! They push through and make it happen, no matter what!"
"I'm super excited about what Greenwood District Studios will do for our region! Go Delta Township!"
"G.D.S. is a community effort to bring live professional entertainment along with a movie studio to Lansing. G.D.S. is being about it!"
"Knowing what must be done does away with fear."
"We will show the industry what inclusion looks like!"
