Event Description

Tonight, we'll be screening "Bamboozled" Spike Lee, USA, 138 min., video, 2000).

Spike Lee’s film explores how old, stereotypical images of Black people are projected through new media. Television writer Pierre Delacroix (Damon Wayans), under pressure from his boss, Dun¬witty (Michael Rapaport), to make a hit show, creates a variety show that resurrects degrading images of African-Americans from the minstrel show era. Anticipating protest, the show, to the surprise of many, becomes a hit, yet the success they re¬ceive leads to a fatal culmination.

Free and open to the public. Please visit our website through the link above for more information.
