A screening of the film “Asmarina” will be followed by a conversation between the director, Medhin Paolos, and Angela Davis.

 

Asmarina is a documentary about the Eritrean-Ethiopian community in Italy.It traces the complex networks of colonial legacies, transnational migrations, family ties and diasporic politics.The result is a collective tale which brings to light a postcolonial heritage that has been little scrutinized up to now: the everyday life stories of those who have lived in the country for years, those who were born there and the daycare of the refugees who have just arrived.

Free tickets available through the Harvard Box Office. Please use the Broadway Entrance.
