SUMMARY:Stuart Hall Film Project Screening - FREE
DESCRIPTION:
 Join us at the Broad MSU for a screening of The 
 Stuart Hall Project, a stirring film that charts 
 the life and work of the influential cultural 
 theorist Stuart Hall (1932-2014). By interweaving 
 archival footage, specially filmed 
 material, interviews and a soundtrack by Miles 
 Davis, The Stuart Hall Project reveals how 
 Hall's personal trajectory as a Jamaican immigrant 
 living in the United Kingdom, coincided 
 with the demise of the British Empire and 
 the birth of a multicultural Britain. Far from 
 being merely a portrait of a post-war immigrant 
 whose radical ideas inspired artists, writers 
 and political thinkers alike, this film 
 is a poignant meditation on the struggles of 
 race, class, gender and cultural identity that 
 marked the latter part of the 20th century. 
 The screening is followed by an open discussion 
 focusing on Hall's legacy on both sides 
 of the Atlantic. Presented as part of the Black 
 Film as Social Activism series, organized 
 by the Broad MSU and the MSU Film Studies Department.\n\n
