Language: English
About the seminar
Where Do Black Men Live is a powerful fictional dramatization inspired by the 1994 documentary by director Lee Mun Wah, The Color of Fear. Written by Gift Tapiwa, Joy Wrolson, and Stephanie Guirand, the film uses a verbatim theatre style—meaning the script is composed directly from the real words of black men interviewed about their housing experiences.
The film imagines eight of these men in conversation, seated in a circle, sharing their stories with one another. What unfolds is a deeply moving exploration of the challenges and triumphs they’ve faced in finding and keeping home.
The seminar will screen the film, followed by a discussion with Stephanie Guirand.
