Sneak preview on Friday
The film Black Is...Black Ain't will be shown at 8:15 pm on Friday, Oct. 6, in Kinnicutt Hall. Black is...Black Ain't is the work of Marlon Riggs, a Harvard-educated Emmy- and Peabody Award-winning videomaker who died of AIDS in April 1994. The film is a powerful critique of sexism, patriarchy, homophobia, colorism and cultural nationalism in the black family, church and other black institutions. The showing is a preview; the film will open soon at Boston's Museum of Fine Arts. It is part of the Oct. 6 and 7 annual meeting of the Northeast Popular Culture Association.
