SUMMARY:"Who We Are" film screening
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Martin Luther King was assassinated at the age of 39 years. On January 16\, we honor his life by imagining where we would be as country if he had lived a longer life\, and what we can now do to make up for lost time.\n\nThis fascinating documentary gives us a roadmap toward becoming our best selves by learning where we squandered opportunities in the past or let negative forces erode our pledge as one indivisible nation\, with liberty and justice for all.\n\nJeffery Robinson had one of the best educations in America. He went to Marquette University and Harvard Law School and has been a trial lawyer for over 40 years – as a public defender\, in private practice\, at the ACLU\, and now at The Who We Are Project. In 2011\, Robinson began raising his then 13-year-old nephew and\, as a Black man raising a Black son\, struggled with what to tell his son about racism in America. How\, he wondered\, did we get here? And when he started looking at our Nation’s history\,\n\nRobinson was shocked by what he had not known. For the past 10 years\, in community centers\, concert halls\, houses of worship\, and conference rooms across America\, he has been sharing what he learned.\n\nIn WHO WE ARE – A Chronicle of Racism in America\, Robinson faces his largest audience\, asking all of us to examine who we are\, where we come from\, and who we want to be.\n\nAnchored by Robinson’s 2018 performance at NYC’s historic Town Hall Theater\, the film interweaves historical and present-day archival footage\, Robinson’s personal story\, and observational and interview footage capturing Robinson’s meetings with Black change-makers and eyewitnesses to history. From a hanging tree in Charleston\, South Carolina\, to a walking tour of the origins of slavery in colonial New York\, to the site of a 1947 lynching in rural Alabama\, the film brings history to life\, exploring the enduring legacy of white supremacy and our collective responsibility to overcome it.\n\nIn WHO WE ARE – A Chronicle of Racism in America\, Robinson exposes how deeply encoded white supremacy and the oppression of Black Americans is in our nation’s history. Weaving heartbreak\, humor\, passion\, and rage\, Robinson shows us how legalized discrimination and state-sanctioned brutality\, murder\, dispossession\, and disenfranchisement continued long after slavery ended\, profoundly impeding Black Americans’ ability to create and accumulate wealth as well as to gain access to jobs\, housing\, education\, and health care. His words lay bare an all-but-forgotten past\, as well as our shared responsibility to create a better country in our lifetimes.\n\nGeneral – $3.90 (includes one ticket and a $.40 donation)\nAlly – $39.00 (includes four tickets and a $25 donation)\nPatron – $390.00 (includes eight tickets and a $362.00 donation)\n\nAll proceeds support the New Neighbors Coalition of Jamestown Fund held at the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation\, which is used to assist in refugee resettlement in Jamestown.
