Keenan "Special" Bristol: Music Brings Life Presents "Students Are Heroes: A Sickle Cell Warrior's Story" 2024
Music Brings life presented this September the premiere of "Students Are Heroes: A Sickle Cell Warrior's Story", a film which is dedicated to bringing awareness of the shortage of blood donations for victims facing sickle cell disease, white African-American, Latino and Caribbean donors.Throughout 2024 the Music Brings Life team has been screening the film at different high schools, followed by a blood drive with a goal of raising 10,000 pints of blood. This was not only a dream for Music Brings Life but also a great accomplishment. The team the organization has set up with Keenan "Special" Bristol and co- producer Prince is beyond reproach in spreading the word and reaching their target.
The movie starring Jordana Bristol, a high school student who is an athlete that collapses during track practice and is admitted to the hospital. She faces a sickle cell crisis, which is a critical situation and is exasperated by her development of antibodies from previous blood transfusions, which complicates the search for compatible blood donors. Sadly, the hospital lacks specific blood type required for her treatment. Individuals from Black and Latino communities are more likely to have this compatible blood, but our under- represented in blood donations.
Her situation becomes increasingly urgent, and the only hope she has lies in the possibility that high school students may come forward to donate blood. The film was directed and produced by Keenan "Special" Bristol, and co-produced by Prince. A Sickle Cell Warriors Story Talented Cast consists of Jordana Whyte (playing Jordana Bristol), Keenan "Special" Bristol (playing Dr. Alexander), Joanna Wactor (playing Isabell), Stacy Thomas (playing Dr. Stacy), Martin Bluth (playing Dr. Martin Bluth), Deigo Diaz (playing Dr. Princeton), Kia Rush (playing Martha Ellis), Melvin Thomas AKA King Melvin Brown (playing Principal Johnson), Layla Johnson (playing Stacy), Al Jetson (playing James), Jada Bourne (playing Giselle), Joven Elegado (playing Parker), Prince Forde (playing Michael), DJS1 (playing himself), DeAundre Addison (playing Ferris), Sherebiah Lawes (playing Tailah), Madison Thompson (playing a student), Serenity Eaddy (playing Ari) and Jeff Simon (playing a teacher).
Their quest for blood donations will continue in 2025 until they reach their goal and most likely beyond. They are already planning more high school screenings of the film accompanied by blood drives.
