UNC Professor Gorham "Hap" Kindem produced a music video from the song “Talk Straight” by the Chapel Hill, NC indie rock band The Old Ceremony. The video interlaces footage of the Kibera slum, the famous movie Bend it Like Beckham, and the National Championship-winning UNC Women's Soccer Team. The video demonstrates that even though there is a world of difference among us, we are all brothers and sisters in our efforts to find our own solutions to the problems and hardships that affect our daily lives.
