School of Dance Forum: Social Justice and Film Screening

Please join the FSU School of Dance to view Professor Tiffany Rhynard’s award winning film, “Black Stains” on March 7th at 10:30am at the School of Dance weekly forum.

“Part dance film, part documentary, Black Stains is a poignant and sobering meditation on what it means to be a black man in today’s society. Moving with uncompromising physicality, an all male ensemble destabilizes conventional assumptions of masculinity and racial stereotypes as they navigate through an urban landscape while battling their own emotional terrain. Interviews with men from varying ages bring abstract issues into sharper focus as their personal stories reveal the vulnerability and consequences of a racialized world. The film is inspired by the personal experiences of collaborator Trent D. Williams, Jr., an African-American male choreographer and educator whose choreography is the driving force behind the film.”
