Having experienced hate crimes as a youth and institutionalized racism as an adult,
one day she decided to document
one of her experiences.

Her next two documentaries titled The Robo Con and Nkosi Eclipsed featured strong, indomitable characters who spoke out against systems of oppression.

"'The Robo Con' is tightly researched and well argued. It takes an issue that has been framed as a matter of personal poor or greedy choices and made clear the policies that allowed so many people to be caught up in a process designed for the powerful. Thank you for this clear-eyed reminder which is greatly needed as we look to 2020 and beyond."
"'Nkosi Eclipsed' is "a whole new way to do documentary... [it] transcends narrative and following one person - but pulling back to show the system and its problems and the many other prisoners Nkosi shares that unfair unfortunate fate and identity with, keeping it intimate and personal while also universal, a broad call to action but also contemplative and about Nkosi taking individual responsibility."
"Candice Delevante has a unique way of developing characters and describing their personalities and actions with great detail. It's easy to imagine 'Alternative Universe' while reading it and some of the dialogue and tweets that Candice weaved into the story is astounding."
