VIDEO: White Center: A Student Documentary

Here’s a 15-minute video documentary we found that was shot, produced and directed by an Evergreen State College student named Tom Seyss, called “White Center: A Student Documentary.”

Along with historic photos and locations, the video features local historian Ron Richardson, Full Tilt Ice Cream’s Justin Cline, Aileen Balahadia of the White Center Community Development Association, Rick Jump, Executive Director of the White Center Food Bank, restaurant owners Niki Nguyen, Ana Castro and Leticia Martinez, and outgoing North Highline Fire Chief Scott Lavielle.

According to the blurb Tom wrote for the doc:

“This 15 minute film explores the neighborhood of White Center in late 2009 looking at the issues of; annexation, gentrification, and community collaboration through the eyes of local business owners and community leaders of this diverse neighborhood.“

Good work Tom!
