 s Changing the Picture\, sponsored by Time Warner Inc. \n	\n	\n	Dir. Haile
  Gerima. 1975/1979\, 97 mins. 16mm. With Barbara-O\, Johnny Weathers. Afte
 r seeing a Black woman in Chicago evicted in winter\, Gerima developed Bus
 h Mama as his UCLA thesis film. Gerima blends narrative fiction\, document
 ary\, surrealism\, and political modernism in his unflinching story about 
 a pregnant welfare recipient in Watts. Bush Mama follows Dorothy (the magn
 etic Barbara O. Jones) as she is subjected to the oppressive cacophony of 
 state-sponsored terrorism against the poor in her daily dealings with the 
 welfare office and social workers. Dorothy undergoes an ideological transf
 ormation\, from apathy and passivity to empowered action. \n\n\n	Preceded 
 by: \n	\n	Daydream Therapy \n	\n	\n	Dir. Bernard Nicolas. 1977\, 8 mins. D
 igital projection. With Marva Anderson\, Keith Taylor\, Gay Abel-Bey. Dayd
 ream Therapy\, set to Nina Simone’s haunting rendition of “Pirate Jenny” a
 nd concluding with Archie Shepp’s “Things Have Got to Change\,” Daydream T
 herapy poetically envisions the fantasy life of a hotel worker whose daydr
 eams provide an escape from workplace indignities. \n	\n	\n	Free with Muse

 rve tickets in advance by calling 718 777 6800. For more information about
