RACE IS THE PLACE
A film by Rick Tejada-Flores and Raymond Telles ITVS Community is proud to support RACE IS THE PLACE with a variety of community outreach events and materials, in anticipation of its national broadcast on Independent Lens on November 22, 2005. SHOW DESCRIPTION: RACE IS THE PLACE offers a new and compelling look at one of the most explosive issues in America today. This video performance documentary presents a bold, lyrical and often poetical montage of performances by established artists and up-and-coming young talent from minority communities who use words—spoken, sung or chanted—to get their message across. Each explores racism and its continued survival in this country, and each finds a new and innovative way to engage audiences and challenge them to think beyond traditional conceptions, viewing race through the lens of creativity and performance to stimulate thought and debate.
