About Me

What happens when 30 women of color--straight, gay and trans--get together in a classic Brooklyn Brownstone? A house party, of course. U People documents the humor, tensions, and tenderness shared among this eclectic group of often misunderstood individuals who one day joined forces on a less than typical music video shoot. The documentary dares to echo the oft despised question â€œwho are you people?â€ to which the unabashed heroines and heroes candidly shout back.
