Honoring African American contributions to U.S. history for the Semiquincentennial (America 250).

Honoring African American contributions to U.S. history for the Semiquincentennial (America 250), we spotlight cinematic works exploring Black Revolutionary Patriots, pioneering filmmakers, and defining civil rights milestones.

Key films and documentaries for America 250 screenings include:

Declarations: Black Americans and the Revolutionary War: A groundbreaking PBS documentary uncovering the hidden histories of free and enslaved Black individuals, James Lafayette and Harry Washington, who fought for liberty during the nation's birth.
Becoming American: A Philadelphia Story: A compelling narrative focusing on the struggles and triumphs of Black Philadelphians, showcasing the city as a major early hub for abolition and democratic progress.
Regeneration: Black Cinema 1898–1971: A comprehensive film retrospective celebrating over seventy years of trailblazing African American independent and Hollywood creators who shaped the nation's visual heritage.
Essential Civil Rights Dramas: Crucial historical features that map the ongoing journey of American nation-building, including Ava DuVernay’s Selma (the battle for voting rights), Rustin (the mobilization of the March on Washington), and Hidden Figures (the mathematical genius of Black women in the Space Race).
