NCMA Cinema Fall 2019 Screening Race: 16mm Films of the 1960s and 1970s
December 1, 2019
2:00 PM
NCSU Film Studies Professor Marsha Gordon and AV/Geeks' Skip Elsheimer project a selection of short 16mm films from the 1960s and 1970s engaged with the topic of race. From a student-made documentary about a young woman of color growing up in Los Angeles to a South Carolina educational short about intestinal parasites featuring a hilarious pair of frog and squirrel puppets, you'll see how non-white subjects entered the American consciousness on small screens in classrooms, churches, and community centers.
Dr. Gordon's co-edited collection of essays, Screening Race in American Nontheatrical Film (Duke University Press, 2019), will be available for purchase at the event.
