SUMMARY:"That's Wild" Film Screening | Festival of Black and Independent Film (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:The Diaspora Festival of Black and Independent Film is the Stone Center’s annual series spotlighting films from all corners of the African… More diaspora.\n\nThe 2021 festival is VIRTUAL. The films will be available for a 24 hour window starting at midnight\, on the date of the screening.\n\nRegistration required to received information on virtual screenings and invitations to ZOOM discussion events. Registration is free.\n\nREGISTER HERE: http://apps2.research.unc.edu/events/index.cfm?event=events.go&key=ADCD\nhttps://tinyurl.com/yzfgdvz3ABOUT\n“That’s Wild” (2020)\nDir.: Michiel Thomas | 63 min | Feature Documentary | USA \nGrowing up in Atlanta can be hard as highlighted by three real-life protagonists in That’s Wild. Sixteen-year-old Clifford tries to fill the void of his incarcerated father\, 13-year-old Ahmani struggles with the aftermath of a homeless childhood\, and 13-year-old Nicholas grapples with episodes of depression. When the boys sign up for the after-school program Wilderness Works\, they quickly begin to unpack the negative pressures that surround them in their day-to-day lives.CO-PROGRAMMING: These virtual screenings and the roundtable are co-sponsored by the Ackland Film Forum and the Department of English and Comparative Literature in celebration of the department’s 225th anniversary. \nTHE UNDRGROUND RAILROAD (Series | Amazon): Across his three feature films to date (Medicine for Melancholy\, Moonlight\, and If Beale Street Could Talk)\, Barry Jenkins has devised a new cinematic vocabulary for the portrayal of Black experience in the United States. With sumptuous imagery and hypnotic soundscapes\, Jenkins has embraced aesthetic beauty as a strategy for addressing the past and present injustices that bear on the lives of marginalized characters. His 2021 miniseries\, The Underground Railroad is adapted from Colson Whitehead’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of the same name. A haunting\, atmospheric account of two runaway slaves in the Antebellum South\, the series is Jenkins’ most daring directorial work yet. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Black-Owned Bookstores: Their Struggle of
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the 2019 Diaspora Lecture as we examine the pioneering role of Black bookstores\, an often-overlooked element in the story of Black community development and Black empowerment in the United States.  \nThe event will feature a presentation by Professor Joshua C. Davis whose recent book\, From Head Shops to Whole Foods:\nThe Rise and Fall of Activist Entrepreneurs (Columbia University Press\, 2017) includes a chapter entitled “Liberation Through Literacy: African American Bookstores\, Black Power\, and the Mainstreaming of Black Books”. Davis’ research included extensive review of FBI files and additional interviews with the owners of Black bookstores. His work\, featured in the Atlantic (“The FBI’s War on Black-Owned Bookstores”\, February 19\, 2018) concluded that there had been an organized campaign to undermine the key and central role of Black bookstores in community life. \nThere will be a panel discussion following Davis’s presentation featuring activist/author/scholar Michael Simanga and activist/author/lecturer Clarence Lusane. \nThe 2019 African Diaspora Lecture-Roundtable will take place in the Hitchcock Room of the Stone Center at 6:30 pm on Friday\, March 29. This program is free and open to the public but reservations are encouraged.  \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Strange Fruit Documentary Screening
DESCRIPTION:Dir.: Joel Katz\, USA 57 min. \nJoin us at Chapel Hill landmark\, Varsity Theatre\, for a screening of Strange Fruit\, the first documentary exploring the history and legacy of the Billie Holiday classic. The song’s evolution tells a dramatic story of America’s radical past using one of the most influential protest songs ever written as its epicenter. The saga brings viewers face- to- face with the terror of lynching even as it spotlights the courage and heroism of those who fought for racial justice when to do so was to risk ostracism and livelihood if white – and death if Black. It examines the history of lynching\, and the interplay of race\, labor and the left\, and popular culture as forces that would give rise to the Civil Rights Movement. A discussion will take place after the film’s screening. This event is made possible with support from the Chapel Hill-Carrboro NAACP. \nThis event is FREE and open to the public. \n\n\n	Related
