Join us to learn about America's legendary first African American filmmakers with founding Cinema I/O member, Omaya Jones.
Early black filmmakers created work that celebrated black culture and community that went unaddressed by Hollywood for decades. On Monday, February 23rd we will view films from the Kino Lorber collection Pioneers of African American Cinema. On Saturday February 28th, Mr. Jones will lead a conversation on this collection and its contributions to cinema history.
