Doors at 7:00 PM ... Screening at 7:30 PM @ The Mini - 1329 Main St.
A Special FADE2BLACK Film Festival Screening of I AM NOT YOUR NEGRO, in conjunction with BFMM & The Mini Microcinema, by master filmmaker, Raoul Peck.
With this film Peck "envisions the book James Baldwin never finished, "Remember This House." The result is a radical, up-to-the-minute examination of race in America, using Baldwin’s original words and flood of rich archival material. I Am Not Your Negro is a journey into black history that connects the past of the Civil Rights movement to the present of with BlackLivesMatter. It is a film that questions black representation in Hollywood and beyond. And, ultimately, by confronting the deeper connections between the lives and assassination of Medgar Evers, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr., Baldwin and Peck have produced a work that challenges the very definition of what America stands for."
A brilliant masterpiece that only Raoul Peck can deliver and narrated by Samuel L. Jackson, I AM NOT YOUR NEGRO is Free ($5 Contributions encouraged)and open to the public with all the Popcorn you can eat! Discussion follows.
