About this Event
Please join us for an exclusive screening of the film Black Waters- Brotherhood in the Wild. We are presenting an exclusive screening and community conversation with the stars of the film Black Waters- Brotherhood in the Wild, hosted by Anthony Taylor - Melanin in Motion/The Cultural Wellness, Ujamaa Place, and 100 Black Men Twin Cities. Blackwaters encompasses the power of 5 Black men whose paths have been challenged with loss, defeat, fear, pain, and the social injustices Black men and Black boys face every day. Through surviving life’s trials, each man has found grace and success in the outdoors, healed and mended by nature’s medicine, embracing the art of fly fishing and building brotherhood. The film highlights their journey through the Gates Of The Arctic Circle National Park and follows their adventures and dialogue as they learn to hold space in nature as anglers paving the road for the next generation. This event will begin with a light dinner and social hour at 5:30 PM at the Capri Theatre.
The cast of Blackwaters will be participating in several events in Minneapolis beginning May 16. There are two additional screenings open to all community members at different locations. Thursday night, hosted by the Parks Foundation at the MIA, and Saturday night, hosted by the Univ. of Minn. Dept. of Forest Resources at the Bell Museum. The cast of Blackwaters will be participating in all of the l events this weekend May 16-18. Learn more on the Minneapolis Parks Foundation website and the Univ of MN Forest Resources site
