Rustin Film Screening

As a part of Black Legacy Month, the Office of the Vice Provost for Institutional Excellence and co-sponsors Africana Center, LGBT Center, Tisch College, and the University Chaplaincy will be screening Rustin. 

Bayard Rustin was the architect of 1963’s March on Washington. He challenged authority and never apologized for who he was, but was forgotten, despite making history. Directed by George C. Wolfe and starring Oscar-nominated actor Colman Domingo, Rustin shines a long-overdue spotlight on the extraordinary man who, alongside giants like the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr., Adam Clayton Powell Jr., and Ella Baker, dared to imagine a different world, and inspired a movement in a march toward freedom.

Register to attend here. 

Date: Thursday, February 22

Time: 6:00 p.m.

Location: Cabot ASEAN Auditorium, Tufts University Medford Campus
