| | | Details | Join us for a screening of American Fiction, written and directed by Cord Jefferson and based on the 2001 novel Erasure by Percival Everett. Jeffrey Wright stars as Monk, a frustrated novelist who is tired of the establishment profiting from “Black” entertainment that relies on tired and offensive tropes. To prove his point, Monk uses a pen name to write a satirical “Black” book of his own, which propels him to the heart of hypocrisy and the madness he claims to disdain.
A panel discussion following the screening will be livestreamed.
