Film Screening and Discussion: Racial Taboo
An effective way to overcome racism is building meaningful relationships, but how? We can’t even have meaningful conversation about racial issues. Why? To answer that, Racial Taboo looks at our history, uses comedy and candid interviews to help the audience gain a common understanding of our past and how it affects our present. Racial Taboo is intended to be a catalyst for open, respectful and ongoing conversations between people of different races.
Local North Carolina filmmaker Brian Grimm will be present to talk about this film and his work showing the film at museums, universities, churches and community centers around the southeast. In addition, Tod Ewing, one of the individuals featured in the film, will be present to dialogue. Ewing is the author of Seeing Heaven in the Face of Black Men and co-founder of the Race Story ReWrite Project.
Free film screening and discussion in Witherspoon Cinema on April 11, 2016 from 3:00-5:00 p.m. sponsored by NCSU Bahá'í Club and the University Scholars Program.
