Description:

WHOSE STREETS SCREENING and COMMUNITY DIALOGUE

Hi-ARTS, Maysles Cinema, and Magnolia Pictures present a screening of the documentary, Whose Streets. Whose Streets is an unflinching look at how the killing of 18-year-old Mike Brown inspired a community to fight back and sparked a global movement. After the film, there will be a community dialogue about the intersection of art and activism. This is an unprecedented opportunity to screen and discuss the documentary before its national premiere.

TIME 7:00pm | VENUE Busboys and Poets (14th and V) | Free RSVP
