Celebrate Black History Month - Free Screening of "Lumumba"
Liberation Film Series - Free Movie Screening Lumumba (2000), Raoul Peck, dir.
Celebrate Black History month with a free screening of Raoul Peck's poignant film Lumumba (2000). The movie documents the life and death of the brilliant African politician Patrice Lumumba. Lumumba was the shining star of a generation of post-independence African left-wing leaders interested in charting a course away from Western dependency and imperialism. Peck's Lumumba is a tragic figure whose demise raises questions about the possibilities for the liberation of Africa in the 21st century.

"An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity."
The rebels search each other out. They walk toward one another. They find each other and together they break other fences. In the countryside and cities, in the states, in the nations, on the continents, the rebels begin to recognize each other, to know themselves as equals and different. They continue on their fatiguing walk as it is now necessary to walk, that is to say, struggling...
