SUMMARY:IMPACT Film & Discussion: "Afrofuturism: The Origin Story"
DESCRIPTION:This program year\, IMPACT is using a lens we call “Care and Counternarratives” to create more possibilities and approaches to racial equity\, justice\, and liberation. In our film and discussion spaces\, we have grounded ourselves in contemporary and historical examples of radical imagination–the ability to imagine life\, and social institutions not as they are but as they could be. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n– – – – – – – –\nOne of the many traditions that pushes our capacity to practice radical imagination is Afrofuturism. According to the National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC)\, Afrofuturism is “an evolving concept expressed through a Black cultural lens that reimagines\, reinterprets and reclaims the past and present for a more empowering and inclusive tomorrow.”\nWith the anticipated opening of the exhibit “Afrofuturism: A History of Black Futures” in March 2023 at the NMAAHC\, we are hosting a viewing of “Afrofuturism: The Origin Story” on Monday\, February 27th from 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm. We hope you’ll join us for this free event.\n\nUse this link to register: https://tinyurl.com/yuuaamye\n\nThe film will be followed by an optional facilitated discussion for those who would like to participate.\n\n\n\n\n– – – – – – – –\n\nWe are pleased to offer MCPS Student Service Learning (SSL) hours for students age 16 or older who participate in this event. To receive SSL hours\, you must pre-register for this event through the Montgomery County Volunteer Center using this link: https://montgomerycountymd.galaxydigital.com/need/detail/?need_id=778838
