SOCIAL JUSTICE FILM PROJECT

JANUARY’s FILM:

“THE TERRIBLE TRANSFORMATION“

A4SJ (Advocates for Social Justice) presents the 5th in a Racial Justice Film Series: “The Terrible Transformation.” This is a truly remarkable documentary that examines the development of the institution of slavery from its earliest days. Covering the years 1450-1750, this film traces the transition from indentured servitude with the promise of freedom following the agreed upon term, to no possibility of freedom and lifelong servitude. Here we find the answers to “How did we get where we are today?,” the original oppressor and oppressed dynamic formed so many years ago. This is Part 1 of a 4 part PBS series, “Africans In America.” Discussion follows viewing.
