"Equal Standard" was introduced to the Bay Area by San Francisco Black Film Festival Co-Director Kali O'Ray, who was in the midst of planning a Popup Drive-in event in China Basin with LMNOP Design for the film when COVID-19 cases ticked up in San Francisco and plans were altered. O'Ray died unexpectedly on August 7th before finalizing alternative plans for "Equal Standard."

In tribute to O'Ray, who died on the first Friday on August and Chadwick Boseman, who died on August 28th, the last Friday of August, San Francisco Black Film Festival paid tribute to both with its Live Talk @SFBFF "The Power of the Heroic Figure to Fight Racism" with San Francisco Human Rights Commissioner and former California Public Utilities Judge Karen Clopton, Oakland-based Supreme Court winning civil rights attorney, Pamela Price, San Francisco Arts Commissioner Linda Parker Pennington, Taheim Bryan and Jackie Wright, as moderator.
O'Ray's leadership not only opened the way for collaboration with the Durban International Film Festival, but also the Durban FilmMart that was held September 4-13, 2020.
