As the movement of “Black Lives Matter” shakes the nation Sensible Cinema will take part by screening Fruitvale Station by Director Ryan Coogler.
Fruitvale Station, a true story, follows the twenty-year old Oscar Grant on the eve of his last day of life, December 31, 2008, when early the next day, New Years Day, January 1, 2009, BART police murder him in cold blood at the Fruitvale BART station.
The incident, capture on video by onlookers, incited protest, unrest, and arguments which shook not only the Bay Area, but the entire nation.
Program will include discussion of plans for nationwide actions April 14, 2015.
