SUMMARY:"Raised/Razed" Movie Discussion with the Filmmakers!
DESCRIPTION:Filmmaker Lorenzo Dickerson and writer Jordy Yager\, local creators of the very well-received May 2022 movie Raised/Razed about the life and destruction of Vinegar Hill\, will speak at 6:30pm on July 28th at the Central Library. You can attend this event either in person (Swanson Case Room 125\, formerly named the McIntire Room) or  via this Zoom link. \nLorenzo and Jordy will share hard truths about the federal Urban Renewal program and its impact on scores of American cities (Durham\, NC is also profiled) through a deep dive into the history and demolition of Vinegar Hill\, Charlottesville’s oldest African American neighborhood. They chart the lives of its residents as they faced racially discriminatory policies and a city government that saw them as obstacles to “progress”\, and they identify some of the most important take-aways from this history. \nMany of us watched Raised/Razed at its Jefferson School or PBS premieres; if you haven’t seen it yet it’s only an hour long and is available at no charge on the VPM website <https://vpm.org/raisedrazed>. Please watch (or re-watch!) the film before their talk and come with questions about (1) their journalistic & cinematic storytelling and (2) what they learned in the process of making the film. \nNote — this is the first in-person speaker event in our co-sponsored series with Albemarle Dems since Covid began!

SUMMARY:Zoom Event with Oscar-nominated Director of "Gabby Giffords Won't Back Down" (8/3 6:30pm)
DESCRIPTION:Oscar-nominated documentary director Julie Cohen (past works include the acclaimed “RBG” about Ruth Bader Ginsburg) will give a special Zoom talk + Q&A to Charlottesville on August 3rd at 6:30pm for her just-released film “Gabby Giffords Won’t Back Down” (see trailer here). The new movie tells the extraordinary story of former Arizona Congresswoman Gabby Giffords’ relentless and ultimately successful fight to recover from a 2011 assassination attemp\, and her new life as one of the most effective activists in the battle against gun violence. \nZoom link to the event:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/83200876457 \nThe documentary is now playing in theaters nationwide (has been at Violet Crown locally) and on August 5th becomes available for viewing on Amazon\, AppleTV\, iTunes\, and other streaming services. Produced in partnership with CNN Films and Time Studios\, the film features: \n\nexclusive stunning videos taken in the weeks following her near-death\na close-up portrait of her marriage to former-astronaut now Arizona US Senator Mark Kelly that has sustained her through her ordeal\ninterviews with Pres. Barack Obama\, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand\, Rep. Jim Clyburn\, and other friends and colleagues\n\nJulie’s team spent two years following Gabby\, one of our nation’s most inspirational figures in the fight against gun violence; CBS News’ Jane Pauley last week called her “the face of a movement“. In her Q&A she will answer audience questions about Gabby and her special relationship with Sen. Kelly\, provide insights into our national gun debate\, and share behind-the-scenes anecdotes from her work with Gabby and other documentaries. \nWe’ve organized the event\, which is co-sponsored by Moms Demand Action Charlottesville\, The B.U.C.K Squad\, and Students Demand Action at UVA (the latter three groups are not affiliated with the Democratic Party) to continue bringing attention to the curse of gun violence and spotlight the work citizen activists are doing locally and nationwide. \nAbout Julie Cohen — Julie is the Academy Award® nominated director and producer of RBG (Magnolia\, CNN Films\, 2018) along with Betsy West. Other films she’s directed with West include the Academy Award shortlisted JULIA (Sony Pictures Classics)\, the Peabody Award winning My Name is Pauli Murray (Amazon Studios) and their latest: Gabby Giffords Won’t Back Down (CNN Films\, Briarcliff Entertainment). Previous films she’s directed include American Veteran (which screened at the Virginia Film Festival)\, The Sturgeon Queens\, and I Live to Sing. Before she started making documentaries\, Julie was a longtime producer for Dateline NBC.

SUMMARY:Ézé Amos "Town Hall" event on his A12 Downtown Mall Photo Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Charlottesville’s only city-supported event commemorating the 5th anniversary of A12 is the outdoor photo exhibit The Story of Us: Reclaiming the Narrative of #Charlottesville through Portraits of Community Resilience. The Exhibit’s creator\, local photojournalist and artist Ézé Amos\, will lead a town hall-style presentation in which he’ll both explain the genesis and intentionality behind his exhibit (in conversation with Jefferson School Executive Director Dr. Andrea Douglas) and  offer attendees a chance to share their emotions and memories of their experiences of that weekend.  Join us in-person in the Charlottesville Downtown Library’s Swanson Case Room or on Zoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85683422230 \nThe exhibit’s photos will be mounted on trees all along the Downtown Mall\, and each photo will have a QR code linking to a roughly 3-minute recording of the person in the photo describing that moment captured in the photo in their own words and voice. The photos will be installed August 9-10. \nÉzé created the exhibit to overturn caricatured perceptions and narratives of Charlottesville as no more than the place where the Alt-right perpetrated violence and spewed hate in 2017. The exhibit elevates the equally important truth that our community came together in resistance — holding space\, being brave\, being vulnerable\, showing love for each other in the face of that assault. \nYou won’t want to miss these powerful presentations and the chance to interact with Ézé about his interactive exhibit; please spread the word\, please bring family and friends!
