Presented on the occasion of International Day for People of African Descent
DESCENDANT is a story of how the past and the truth are always present. Award-winning filmmaker Margaret Brown returns to her hometown of Mobile,Alabama, to document the search for and historic discovery of The Clotilda, the last known ship to arrive in the United States, illegally carrying 110 kidnapped Africans. Community-led organizations in Africatown are working tirelessly to preserve and document the legacy of their ancestors while combating environmental issues threatening the community.
After the screening join us for a discussion on the contributions of the African diaspora.
