SUMMARY:Black Joy Film Fest: NEGRITA: Racially Black\, Ethnically Latina
DESCRIPTION:Come join us at the Black Joy Film Fest\, for a celebration of Black excellence and uplifting stories on the big screen!\n\n\nCome join us for a night of celebration and empowerment at the Black Joy Film Fest screening of the documentary NEGRITA: Racially Black\, Ethnically Latina. \nSYNOPSIS \nNEGRITA\, the debut documentary film from director Magdalena Albizu\, interrogates the cultural prejudice and presumptions surrounding the lives of Afro Latina women in America. Albizu\, a self-described negrita\, explores an unconscious ideology of anti-Blackness in which both American and Latino cultures perpetuate a false narrative of Black as undesirable otherness. Through family pictures\, childhood videos\, and frank conversations\, NEGRITA uses the director’s own personal history to illuminate the larger tapestry of shared experiences throughout the Black and Latin community. Hand in hand with women from the Dominican Republic\, Puerto Rico\, Honduras\, and Panama\, Albizu and her subjects collectively confront their own Black identities\, empowering themselves as Afro Latinas.84mins | Directed by Stanley Nelson | 2025 \nPack your lawn chair\, bring the family\, grab your favorite snacks\, and settle in for an evening of film\, and community under the summer sky.
