A celebration of the contributions of prominent African American women, the film features the context of civil rights, Black power, lesbian and gay rights and the feminist movement, with the trio reassessing how women revolutionized American society and the world.

In partnership with host Material Institute (2120 Port St, New Orleans, LA), Highlander Center presents a free screening of "A Place of Rage" Feb. 9 at 6:30pm CT

"A Place of Rage" is an exuberant award-winning documentary film by Pratibha Parmar which made its debut in 1991, yet its content is still one of the richest and most cherished, including rare interviews with Angela Davis, June Jordan and Alice Walker.

OUT OF PLACE is thus both a fascinating biographical film on one of the most acclaimed cultural critics of the postwar world as well as an engaging examination of many of the cultural and political issues to which he devoted his life.
