3rd Annual I, Too, Sing America Black History Month Film Festival
DESCRIPTION
I, Too, Sing America captures the aspirations motivating this film festival: That America – as a country, idea, and ideal in waiting – must seat everyone at her table. Sponsored by the Baha'is of Scottsdale in partnership with the NAACP-Maricopa Branch and Phoenix Sankofa Project, the film festival offers the chance to learn about the African American experience through the art of cinema. Today’s proliferation of streaming media makes watching movies with those who typically share our experiences and points of view easier than ever. The I, Too, Sing America Film Festival creates a space for the meaningful conversations that follow – with people we might not otherwise encounter – as we strive towards realizing a racially just and unified community.
