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.
