5:00pm-6:30pm – Online Watch Party “Residue”

In the film “Residue”, a young man moves back to the Washington DC neighborhood where he grew up, only to find it completely transformed. Written and directed by Merawi Gerima, the 90 minute film is a profoundly emotional and artistic exploration of gentrification, racism, and erasure.  Although fictional, it is based on his real experiences, and has been described as “a righteously angry meditation on people, place and time”.

We invite you to watch this film and join us in a discussion this August:
