Doors open at 5:30pm for dinner and free admission to the galleries at the Flint Institute of Arts. The film begins at 6:45pm. on Thursday, Feb. 27, 2025.

About 'This Is My Black': Students at Berks County's Pine Forge Academy display that Black youth with agency can persist even in a world trying to stifle them. Opening with a glorious and rhythm-filled musical number, the students spotlight their gifts as well as their awareness of the precarity of Black life. Further expressed in choir rehearsal, where personal struggles yield results, a vulnerable moment allows the students to reveal the hardship of navigating a world where Black death consumes the media.

A brief discussion by local experts will follow the documentary film screening. The event is free, but donations are accepted.
