Marlon Riggs: Affirmations + Anthem + Tongues Untied
Free admission

Three films by Marlon Riggs, who was not only an important and influential documentary filmmaker for both the black and queer communities in the US, but also a poet, and an AIDS activist. An early adopter of video technology, he employed a bold mix of documentary, performance, poetry, and music in order to confront the devastating legacy of racist stereotypes, the impact of AIDS on his community, and the very definition of what it means to be Black.
