LOS ANGELES (February 20, 2024) — Ashley Maria Productions, an independent production company specializing in short and feature length professional video projects, today announced that it has been selected by the U.S. Department of the Air Force, in support of both the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Space Force, to provide a one-year movie screening package for the documentary Pioneers in Skirts.

The Department of the Air Force officially established a Diversity and Inclusion office in 2021, with the goal of cultivating an equitable environment for all DAF personnel, by finding and fixing policies and procedures that might have adverse impacts on underrepresented troops and eliminating barriers and other practices that might impede their careers in the Air and Space Forces. 

DAF, and the broader the Department of Defense community, now have access to the film as a catalyst for meaningful conversations and planning efforts for building a culture of inclusion where every member of the Air and Space Forces is respected and valued for their identity, culture and background.
