Academy Award–nominees Lisa Cortés (T he Apollo) and Liz Garbus (What Happened\, Miss Simone?) take us from the early attempts at the political disenfranchisement of Black Americans via poll taxes and “literacy tests\,” to the Voting Rights Act of 1965\, to th e 2013 Supreme Court ruling that weakened that landmark case and allowed f or the return of rampant state discrimination. Anchored by candid intervie ws with the Democratic Party’s rising star Stacey Abrams\, All In is clari fying and urgent\, especially in an election year in which the very proces s of voting has come under threat from those determined to stay in power. An Amazon Studios release. \n\n\n Preceded by\n\n\n Spit on the Broom\n \n Dir. Madeleine Hunt-Ehrlich. US\, 2019\, 11 mins. Spit on the Broom is a film that is the result of two years of research in partnership with histo ric women’s group the United Order of Tents\, a secret organization of bla ck women founded on the underground railroad. Out of respect for the group s continued secrecy the film is structured around excerpts from the public record\, newspaper articles related to the Tents from over the course of 100 years\, and a visual tapestry of fable and myth as a way to introduce a history that remains secret.\n \n \n\n\n RSVP here for free tickets. \n \n DTSTART:20200909T190000 DTEND:20200909T223000 LOCATION:Museum of the Moving Image SUMMARY:All In: The Fight for Democracy END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
