The Spook Who Sat by the Door Special Movie Screening and Discussion

The Spook Who Sat By the Door is a bold political thriller that shook America when it was released during the Black Power movement. The film follows a Black CIA recruit who uses his training to organize a grassroots liberation effort, turning the system’s tools into a strategy for resistance. Banned from many theaters for its message, it remains one of the most provocative films of its era. Its themes of institutional power, inequality, and activism still resonate today. This screening is a chance to experience the film and join a conversation that goes beyond the credits. If you love cinema that challenges perspectives and sparks real dialogue, don’t miss this.
