SUMMARY:Creative Activism: Artists Driving Social Justice Conversations
DESCRIPTION:Panel + Tour of Civil Rights Institute of Inland Southern California \nThis event brings emerging\, established\, local\, and nationally-renowned artists together to discuss how art and artists drive social justice conversations in our Inland Southern California community and beyond. CRIISC’s exhibition\, Still I Rise: The Black IE Fight for Justice\, will be open to tour after the discussion. \nPanelists: \nCharles Bibbs\nMariah Green\nJon Henry\nRichard Allen May III\nModerated by Sabrina Gonzalez \nAbout the panelists: \nCharles Bibbs\nCharles Bibbs is an internationally acclaimed artist\, entrepreneur\, and philanthropist who is recognized for his beautiful artistic renderings that convey deep senses of spirituality\, majesty\, dignity\, strength\, and grace.  He attended Los Angeles Harbor College\, Long Beach City College\, Cal State Dominquez Hills\, and the California State University of Long Beach\, where he studied in studio arts and fine art printing. \nBibbs’ work displays a unique\, robust and stylized quality done in a combination of abstract and realistic interpretations of contemporary subjects that are fused into beautiful multifaceted ethnicity\, larger-than-life images. His technique and style can be distinguished from most artists by the way in which he combines layers of acrylic paints and inks to obtain rich undertones of line textures. \nBibbs is the founder of  Art2000 Visual Artist Association\, Art On Tour\, Images Magazine\, The Inland Empire Music\, and Arts Foundation\, two publishing and distribution companies\, the former B Graphics and Fine Arts and his current company\, Studio B Art. \nIn his 47 years as an artist\, Bibbs has received over 100 recognition and awards for his art and philanthropic spirit\, including the “Key to the City” awards in 7 major cities across the United States. His work has been featured in major films\, such as the “The Secret Life of Bees (he created the “Black Madonna” image for this movie)\,” television\, books and CD covers including six cover designs for the Urban Knight Collection that features legendary musicians Ramsey Lewis and Grover Washington. \nHis works have been displayed in fine art galleries\, solo and group exhibitions throughout the country and abroad\, including Tokyo\, Japan\, and on the walls of many private collectors and organizations. \n“My most important goal is to make profound aesthetic statements that are ethnically rooted\, and at the same time arouse spiritual emotions within us.”  Charles A. Bibbs®\nwww.cbibbs.com \nMariah Green\nLocal Inland Empire community member Mariah Green is an artist\, curator\, and an archivist. They primarily paint with oil paint and watercolor to explore different routes into the storytelling found in Afrofuturism. Mariah’s focus is on vehicles that could be used in the transportation into new black spaces. Applying Sun Ra’s speculation of what is on the other side of time and how music can be used as a vehicle to this destination is how Mariah approaches their creative process thinking what other vehicles could be used as transportation into blackness. They are using blackness as an imaginative space where black people from past\, present\, and future roam and use this space to exist without consequence. As a curator and archivist she aims to document and platform local artists living within the deep cuts of our valleys. She has curated two local exhibitions. The first titled THE DEEP CUT at ALL Eyes Gallery in San Bernardino that exhibited 15 Inland Empire photographers this past year and BLUEPRINTS at Riverside’s local PAINSUGAR Gallery on 9th street showcasing all black artists ranging from Ohio\, Los Angeles\, to our community member Maurice Howard. In addition they have begun an online archive titled IE ARCHIVES that dedicates itself to intentionally tell the historic and present stories in the Inland Empire through the work of its artists. With any spare time Mariah is also a columnist for an online arts publication called Variable West writing about Southern California’s IE artists.\n@mariahgreenarts \nJon Henry\nJon Henry is a visual artist working with photography and text\, from Queens NY (resides in Brooklyn).

SUMMARY:A Fantastic Woman
DESCRIPTION:Screening\nFriday\, August 17\, 2018\, 7pm\n\n\nMatinee\nSaturday\, August 18\, 2018\, 3pm\n\n\nScreening\nSaturday\, August 18\, 2018\, 7pm\n\n\n\nMarina and Orlando are in love and planning for the future. Marina is a young waitress and aspiring singer. Orlando is 20 years older than her\, and owns a printing company. After celebrating Marina’s birthday one evening\, Orlando falls seriously ill. Marina rushes him to the emergency room\, but he passes away just after arriving at the hospital. \nInstead of being able to mourn her lover\, suddenly Marina is treated with suspicion. The doctors and Orlando’s family don’t trust her. A woman detective investigates Marina to see if she was involved in his death. Orlando’s ex-wife forbids her from attending the funeral. And to make matters worse\, Orlando’s son threatens to throw Marina out of the flat she shared with Orlando. Marina is a trans woman and for most of Orlando’s family\, her sexual identity is an aberration\, a perversion. \nSo Marina struggles for the right to be herself. She battles the very same forces that she has spent a lifetime fighting just to become the woman she is now – a complex\, strong\, forthright and fantastic woman. \nWinner\, Best Foreign Language Film\, Academy Awards 2018

SUMMARY:Strong Island
DESCRIPTION:Free Admission! \nStrong Island chronicles the arc of a family across history\, geography and tragedy – from the racial segregation of the Jim Crow South to the promise of New York City; from the presumed safety of middle class suburbs\, to the maelstrom of an unexpected\, violent death. It is the story of the Ford family: Barbara Dunmore\, William Ford and their three children and how their lives were shaped by the enduring shadow of race in America. \nIn April 1992\, on Long Island NY\, William Jr.\, the Ford’s eldest child\, a black 24 year-old teacher\, was killed by Mark Reilly\, a white 19 year-old mechanic. Although Ford was unarmed\, he became the prime suspect in his own murder. A deeply intimate and meditative film\, Strong Island asks what one can do when the grief of loss is entwined with historical injustice\, and how one grapples with the complicity of silence\, which can bind a family in an imitation of life\, and a nation with a false sense of justice. \nNo reservations are required. Seating is first come\, first serve. \nThis film is a part of Film for Thought\, a series of screenings sponsored by the Advancing Intercultural Studies project and the UCR Center for Ideas and Society through a generous grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

SUMMARY:I Am Not Your Negro
DESCRIPTION:Free Admission! \nI Am Not Your Negro is an examination of racism in America through the lens of James Baldwin’s unfinished book\, Remember This House. Intended as an account of the lives of Medgar Evers\, Malcolm X\, and Martin Luther King\, Jr.\, each of whom James Baldwin personally knew\, only a 30-page manuscript of the book was ever completed. Combining Baldwin’s manuscript with footage of depictions of African-Americans throughout American history\, I Am Not Your Negro uses Baldwins words to illuminate the pervasiveness of American racism and the efforts to curtail it\, from the civil rights movement to #BlackLivesMatter. Narrated by Samuel L. Jackson\, I Am Not Your Negro explores the continued peril America faces from institutionalized racism. \nNo reservations are required. Seating is first come\, first serve. \nThis film is a part of Film for Thought\, a series of screenings sponsored by the Advancing Intercultural Studies project and the UCR Center for Ideas and Society through a generous grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

SUMMARY:En el Séptimo Día (On the Seventh Day)
DESCRIPTION:Free Admission! \nEn El Séptimo Día (On The Seventh Day) is a fiction feature from director Jim McKay which follows a group of undocumented immigrants living in Sunset Park\, Brooklyn over the course of seven days. \nBicycle delivery guys\, construction workers\, dishwashers\, deli workers\, and cotton candy vendors\, they work long hours six days a week and then savor their day of rest on Sundays on the soccer fields of Sunset Park. José\, a bicycle delivery worker\, is the team’s captain – young\, talented\, hardworking and responsible. When José’s team makes it to the finals\, he and his teammates are thrilled. But his boss throws a wrench into the celebration when he tells José he has to work on Sunday\, the day of the finals. José tries to reason with his boss or replace himself\, but his efforts fail. If he doesn’t work on Sunday\, his job and his future will be on the line. But if he doesn’t stand up for himself and his teammates\, his dignity will be crushed. \nShot in the neighborhoods of Sunset Park\, Park Slope\, and Gowanus\, En El Séptimo Día is a humane\, sensitive\, and humorous window into a world rarely seen. The film’s impact is made quietly\, with restraint and respect for the individual experiences\, everyday challenges\, and small triumphs of its characters. \nNo reservations are required. Seating is first come\, first serve. \nThis film is a part of Film for Thought\, a series of screenings sponsored by the Advancing Intercultural Studies project and the UCR Center for Ideas and Society through a generous grant from the Andrew W.

SUMMARY:Mosque in Morgantown
DESCRIPTION:Free Admission! \nMosque In Morgantown follows one woman’s campaign for change against extremism in her West Virginia mosque\, throwing the community into turmoil and raising questions that cut to the heart of American Islam. When former Wall Street Journal journalist and single mother Asra Q. Nomani returns from working in Pakistan to her hometown mosque in Morgantown\, West Virginia\, she believes she sees signs of trouble: exclusion of women\, intolerance toward non-believers\, and suspicion of the West. She finds such signs particularly alarming and determined to halt the ‘slippery slope’ that she maintains leads from Islamic intolerance to violence\, she begins a campaign to drag the mosque’s practices into the 21st century\, triggering a heated battle between tradition and modernity. Nomani’s activist tactics alienate would-be allies in the mosque\, leading many to wonder who most deserves the label of “extremist.” Director Brittany Huckabee takes a balanced view of the tensions dividing this community\, exploring both sides from a neutral standpoint. This riveting Emmy Award nominated film is not only about women’s rights in the mosque but about the struggles of a Muslim community faces as it strives to be a part of American life. \nNo reservations are required. Seating is first come\, first serve. \nThis film is a part of Film for Thought\, a series of screenings sponsored by the Advancing Intercultural Studies project and the UCR Center for Ideas and Society through a generous grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

SUMMARY:Breaking Silence
DESCRIPTION:Free Admission! \nThree Muslim women share their stories of sexual assault—and\, in a deeply personal way\, they challenge the stigma that has long suppressed the voice of survivors. Throughout America\, many Muslim communities persist in stigmatizing all discussion of sex-related subjects. Even though sexual assault and abuse are widespread\, conversations about it are rare—and the pressure for victims and their families to “keep it a secret” helps perpetuate abuse. Breaking Silence takes a radical and humanizing approach to the emotional scars of sexual assault\, giving women the space to share their voices without shame. Deepened by the perspectives of Imam Khalid Latif of The Islamic Center at NYU\, the film challenges stereotypes and cultural beliefs held by both Muslims and the non-Muslim public. It is indispensable for those dealing with sexual assault and abuse in academic and non- academic settings\, courses on Islamic and Middle Eastern Studies and Women’s Studies\, and for any discussion of violence against women.\n\nNo reservations are required. Seating is first come\, first serve. \nThis film is a part of Film for Thought\, a series of screenings sponsored by the Advancing Intercultural Studies project and the UCR Center for Ideas and Society through a generous grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

SUMMARY:The Noble Struggle of Amina Wadud
DESCRIPTION:Free Admission!\nOn March 18\, 2005\, Amina Wadud shocked the Islamic world by leading a mixed-gender Friday prayer congregation in New York. The Noble Struggle Of Amina Wadud is a fascinating and powerful portrait of this African-American Muslim woman who soon found herself the subject of much debate and Muslim juristic discourse. In defying 1400 years of Islamic tradition\, her action caused global awareness of the struggle for women’s rights within Islam but also brought violence and death threats against her. \nFilmmaker Safari follows this women’s rights activist and scholar around the world as she quietly but with utter conviction explains her analysis of Islam in the classroom\, at conferences\, in her home\, and in the hair dresser’s shop. Wadud explains how Islam\, with its promise of justice\, appeals to the African American community. And she links the struggle for racial justice with the need for gender equality in Islam. Deeply engaging\, this film offers rare insights into the powerful connections between Islam\, women’s rights\, and racial justice. \nNo reservations are required. Seating is first come\, first serve. \nThis film is a part of Film for Thought\, a series of screenings sponsored by the Advancing Intercultural Studies project and the UCR Center for Ideas and Society through a generous grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
