Sankofa -
Sankofa is an Akan
word that means, "We must go back and reclaim our past so we can move forward;
so we understand why and how we came to be who we are today." Written, directed
and produced by Ethiopian-born filmmaker Haile Gerima, SANKOFA is a
powerful film about Maafa-the African holocaust. Done from an
African/African-American perspective, this story is a vastly different one from
the generally distorted representations of African people that Hollywood gives
us. This revolutionary feature film connects enslaved black people with
their African past and culture. It empowers Black people on the screen by
showing how African peoples' desire for freedom made them resist, fight back,
and conspire against their enslavers, overseers and collective past through the
vision on Mona, who visits her ancestral experience on a new world plantation as
Shola. We share the life she endures as a slave and experiences her growing
consciousness and transformation.

Eve's Bayou Actress Kasi Lemmons made an
auspicious debut as a writer and director with this delicately handled,
wrenchingly emotional drama, hailed by critic Roger Ebert as one of the best

killed my father, I was 10 years old."...
Rosewood A shameful chapter in American history
is powerfully dramatized in Rosewood, but moviegoers in 1997 may not have

fiery civil-rights leader, who is superbly...
