HAMPTON ROADS, VA—Nurses by Nurses Production Company is known for creating films about hidden figures from Hampton roads who have opened doors for blacks in medicine. Now, its latest project, The Iconic Gathering is a cinematic lecture that brings together Harriet Tubman, Zora Neale Hurston, Mary McLeod Bethune, Virginia Alexander, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Mary Peake for an enlightening cinematic discussion on solutions to modern challenges.
