SUMMARY:Street Movies! with Urban Creators
DESCRIPTION:Free outdoor screening series bringing independent short films and videos to vibrant public spaces throughout Philadelphia\n\n\nHosted by Urban Creators\, join us for a screening and community-led discussion showcasing empowering stories with family\, fantasy\, music\, and unity at the core. \n7:30pm – Live Performance \n7:45pm – 9:30pm Film Program & Discussion \nFilm Program: \n\nDear Philadelphia (Dir. Renee Maria Osubu / USA / 2021 / 27:48 Minutes): With the help of their family\, friends\, and faith\, three fathers unravel the incomparable partnership of forgiveness and community in North Philadelphia.\nThe Love Machine (Dir. Jasmine Lynea / USA / 2022 / 9:45 Minutes): After successfully building a time machine that uses love to help heal and replace harmful childhood memories\, a teenage scientist/influencer puts his new invention to the test to challenge intergenerational trauma.\nDon’t Go Tellin’ Your Momma (Dir. Topaz Jones & rubberband. / USA / 2021 / 34:32 minutes): The Black ABCs were once taught across the United States. Created in 1970 by two Chicago teachers and the Society for Visual Education\, the cards and posters linked the 26 letters of the alphabet with language and imagery that reflected the lives of Black children. This forward-thinking educational tool was designed to empower Black youth\, who would finally see their community reflected in teaching materials\, which had historically been dominated by white faces. For musician Topaz Jones\, the Black ABCs served as an inspiration to explore his own coming of age in Montclair\, N.J. In the Sundance Film Festival winner “Don’t Go Tellin’ Your Momma\,” Jones and rubberband. take viewers on a visual and musical journey through Jones’s education on his own Black identity. Jones’s personal update to each letter of the alphabet continues the tradition of documenting Black life as valuable.\n\nFor over two decades now\, Street Movies! has been a great way for people to gather together\, engage with independent film\, and foster discussion around the cultural histories of their neighborhood and issues affecting their communities. All screenings are free\, open to the public\, and family-friendly.

During the last 10 months\, Untold Palestine has been organizing exhibitions all around the world for Gazans photographers titled “Gaza Habibti” in the United States\, Germany\, Spain\, and Jordan as part of the Image festival. \n\n\nPassages Through Genocide is a collection of texts from Palestinian writers confronting the genocide in Gaza to lift up their words by sharing\, printing\, publishing  and distributing these texts by all possible means in support of Palestinian liberation. \n\n\nAisha Mershani(they/them) was born in Las Vegas\, Nevada to an American Jewish mother and a Moroccan Muslim father. Mershani holds a Bachelor’s degree in Sociology and Anthropology from the University of Redlands in California\, and a Master’s and a Ph.D. degree from the UNESCO program in Peace\, Development Studies\, and Conflict Transformation at the Universitat Jaume I in Castelló de la Plana\, Spain. From 2003-2022 Mershani focused their subject on the Occupied Palestinian Territories. Aisha has photographed military checkpoints\, popular demonstrations\, house demolitions\, destroyed villages\, and the daily lives of Palestinians living under the violence of the Israeli occupation. Mershani’s photographs have been in multiple publications\, as well as many internet news sites over the years to further the awareness of the ongoing situation on the ground in Palestine. Aisha is also one of the artists in the reference book\, “Encyclopedia of Arab American Artists”.
