A Place of Rage + Nice Coloured Girls, GFT
30 August, 2018
Screening part of Independent Cinema Office x Club des Femmes season Revolt, She Said: Women and Film after ’68
Want an urgent history of African American women driving the civil rights, Black power and feminist movements that you can dance to?
Featuring Prince and Janet Jackson as the spot-on soundtrack to interviews with Alice Walker and Angela Davis, A Place of Rage is our kind of revolution. Pratibha Parmar weaves the story of the 1960s civil rights movement and 1980s LGBT rights movement together in a reminder that the struggle continues because of such leaders. June Jordan’s ‘Poem about Police Violence’ is just one of many moments that still hit home.
This screening will be accompanied by short film Nice Coloured Girls (Australia 1987, 16m)
GFT, 12 Rose Street, G3 6RB
