NOCCA is going on with the screening tonight to commemorate the 3rd year post-Katrina anniversary. Co-directors, Dawn Logsdon and Lolis Eric Elie, along with producer Lucie Faulknor will be in attendance for a Q&A . Following the Q&A, June Bug Productions, John O’Neil’s groundbreaking African American theater troupe, will be coordinating story circles where people can share their own experiences of Hurricane Katrina, their concerns about Hurricane Gustav, and talk about issues brought up by the film. Refreshments will be served.
The Saturday screenings have been cancelled. The Dillard screening is tentatively re-scheduled for Sept. 6th, God willing. Christian Unity Baptist Church will be re-scheduled at a later date. We’ll keep you posted.
Please feel free to forward this on to people who will still be in town.
Everybody be safe and say a prayer for New Orleans.
Dawn, Lolis and Lucie |
