Announcement: BlaxploItalian
On Wednesday, February 17th, the French and Italian Department, in conjunction with the Center for European Studies, the Department of American Studies, the Department of History and the Department of Radio, Television and Film, will present an evening with Italian born and Brooklyn based director Fred "Kudjo" Kuworno. In addition to a Q&A with the documentarian, the event will feature screenings of his films BlaxploItalian, a "call to action for increased diversity in international cinema" that follows the careers of several Black actors working in Italian cinema and Inside Buffalo, about a unit of African American Buffalo Soldiers who fought in Italy during World War II. We hope to see you there.
