Color of Cancer has produced a series of seven short films, each of which tells the story of a Rhode Islander of Color and their experience with cancer.

Through these films, we hope to provide a starting point for conversations around cancer and cancer treatment in Providence’s communities of Color.

Deborah, an 18-year breast cancer survivor, tells her story about overcoming the challenges of the disease.

Following the COVID-19 pandemic, Rochelle had another unexpected hurdle in her life: breast cancer. This is her story.
