Description

The Ridgefield Playhouse is hosting a Diversity Film series featuring 10 films presented by different organizations around town. The Library will present I AM NOT YOUR NEGRO directed by Raoul Peck, a documentary about author James Baldwin. There will also be a recorded interview with Cheryl Washington and Dick Cavett that will be screened after the film and will be available to watch remotely via The Playhouse YouTube channel.

Tickets are free for the screening but must be reserved in advance at the Playhouse by calling 203-438-5795. The film is also available for Ridgefield Library card holders to watch remotely through Hoopla. It is also available on other streaming services. 

This screening kicks off the Library's scholarly series about James Baldwin, which is made possible thanks to the Friends of the Library. More information coming soon!
