"Southern Company and Georgia Power purposefully released news that they were freezing rates because people know full well their bills are too high, and patience is running thin. Our campaign isn't saying anything that ratepayers don't already know...Southern Company has chosen profits over people." - Lindsay Harper, AiA National Coordinator.

"I am delighted to see that we have been recognized by the Telly Awards. I pray that the content of the documentary is also recognized. Southern people want to know why our bills are so high. While this documentary highlights  Southern Company's egregious disrespect of its southern communities, we are also calling out our Public Service Commission for its blatant disregard. This documentary serves as a conversation starter. We will tell our stories to combat the stories that have been told to us." - Rev. Michael Malcom, The People's Justice Council.

"As Director, it was an absolute honor to help bring this story to life. Winning a Telly Award is a testament to the power of organizing through media. When communities take control of the narrative, they reclaim their voice—and their power. This documentary proves that media isn't just a tool for storytelling; it's a vehicle for justice, visibility, and lasting change. The people have a right to be heard, and when we lift each other up through authentic storytelling, we make that right undeniable." - Ashley "Aesthetics" Dorelus

Committed to pushing the boundaries of creativity forward, this year's new categories included topics within Film & Shorts, Outdoor & Adventure, and Brand Partnerships. These categories centered on stories and collaborations that are actively evolving within the video and television industry.
