Black History Month Film Discussion: Good Hair
As part of Black History Month, the Office of Campus Life is sponsoring a film discussion of the Chris Rock documentary, “Good Hair,” on Tuesday, February 23 at 6 p.m. in the Donaghey Student Center Leadership Lounge.
Dr. Tim Edwards, associate professor of mass communications, and Ben Gry, general manager of KLRE/KUAR and adjunct professor in the School of Mass Communication, will host the film screening and discussion.
According to USA Today, the film “…sets out to explore the historically fraught concept of ‘good hair,’ which for African Americans – burdened by the twin legacies of slavery and racism – have traditionally been defined as hair more like white people.”
The event is free and open to the public. For more information, call 569-3308.
