About this Event

"Now Is the Time" (1967) is a short documentary film that utilizes newsreel footage, literature, and archival materials to explore the history of Black resistance and anger in the United States. The film connects earlier African American writers, such as Langston Hughes and James Baldwin, with the Black Power movement. It was produced during the late 1960s to contextualize the rise of Black nationalism and address the American experience of slavery and inequality.


This is a free educational program, however, in order to maintain a safe capacity level, we ask that you get an $8 solidarity ticket to reserve your participation and to sustain our educational programming.
