DESCRIPTION:In the year of the James Baldwin Centennial, join us to watch and discuss: 
 I Am Not Your Negro, directed by Raoul Peck. \n\nFilmmaker Raoul Peck's 
 Oscar-nominated documentary I Am Not Your Negro features the work of the 
 late writer, poet, and social critic, James Baldwin.\n\nAt the time of his 
 death in 1987, he was working on a book, Remember This House, in which he 
 wanted to explore the lives of three of his civil rights movement 
 contemporaries and close personal friends: Medgar Evers, Martin Luther 
 King, Jr., and Malcolm X. It was never completed, but his notes for that 
 project became the foundation for Peck's film.\n\nTwo timely quotes by 
 James Baldwin:\n\n"To be a Negro in this country and to be relatively 
 conscious is to be in a state of rage almost, almost all of the time — 
 and in one's work." \n\n"Not everything that is faced can be changed, but 
 nothing can be changed until it is faced."\n\nWatch the trailer
