Description:
The Hekima Film Discussion Series is the Stone Center's lunchtime discussions about films from across the African diaspora. The films selected for the series focus around the Center's fall theme: Passion and Remembrance: Dislocation/Relocation/Diaspora (D/R/D).
An African-American journalist who writes about hip-hop reluctantly accepts an assignment to interview a retired black actor who played a stereotypical character in the mold of Stepin Fetchit. In the process, she is forced to confront her notions about hip-hop images and her own professional image. Lunch will be provided.
