Black Feminist Film & Discussion
This #BlackHistoryMonth, join MSUM Women’s Center and the Black Student Union for a screening of “Black Feminist,” followed by a virtual discussion via Zoom, this Wednesday, February 17th from 4:00-5:30pm.
“Black Feminist” (2019)(53 minutes) explores the double-edged sword of racial and gender oppression that Black Women face in America. Frustrated by the lack of intersectionality in the women’s movement and the misogyny plaguing the Black liberation movement, filmmaker Zanah Thirus set out to shine a light on the complexities and power of Black feminism. Featuring interviews with a wide range of scholars, writers, business owners, veterans and comedians including former Ebony Editor-in-Chief Kyra Kyles, professor Carrie Morris, and author Tami Winfrey-Harris, the film lays bare the everyday lived experiences of Black Women everywhere.
