Astoria, NY 11106
Until the releases in the past two years of 12 Years a Slave and Django Unchained, the subject of slavery, the "peculiar institution" that shaped the American identity and psyche, has been largely absent from the American film and television narratives. Museum of the Moving Image marks the beginning of Black History Month by hosting an afternoon program of rare screenings and lively discussions with major critics and filmmakers that take a close look at the artistic treatment by the filmmakers who get to tell this story and the meanings of the stories they select to tell.

The New Black
by Yoruba Richen
Nominated for NAACP Image Award
Special Engagement at New York City's FILM FORUM
209 West Houston St. (West of 6th Ave.)
February 12-18, 2014
To date, 16 states have legalized gay marriage, but lawsuits and state referendums fighting this change proliferate. The New Black digs deeply into the role of African-Americans at this historic moment. Focusing on the 2012 legal battle in Maryland (a state in which blacks make up nearly one-third of the electorate), filmmaker Yoruba Richen tracks activists, families, and clergy on both sides of the campaign. Far from a polemical screed, The New Black explores the role of tradition, prejudice, and religious conviction in shaping the evolution of the black community's response.
