FILM: screening of documentary - Negroes With Guns

Negroes With Guns - 02/19/2010

Negroes With Guns: Robert Williams and Black Power witnesses the breakdown of trust between the United States government and its citizens, as influenced by race, class and gender..

Robert F. Williams was the forefather of the Black Power movement and broke dramatic new ground by internationalizing the African American struggle. Negroes with Guns is not only an electrifying look at an historically erased leader, but also provides a thought-provoking examination of Black radicalism and resistance and serves as a launching pad for the study of Black liberation philosophies. Insightful interviews with historian Clayborne Carson, biographer Timothy Tyson, Julian Bond, and a first person account by Mabel Williams, Robert's wife, bring the story to life.
