Docs & Dialogue-The Rise & Fall of the Black Woman


Saturday, October 2 · 2:00pm - 4:30pm

Location P.E.A.C.E. Center
6455 S. Peoria Ave.
Chicago, IL


The featured documentary will discuss the Rise & Fall of the black woman and how presently there appears to be a war against ALL black women.

Ages 13+ encouraged to attend, however, there is strong language so we there is a parental advisory warning.

The “Docs & Dialogue” series is a grass root project created by residents of the Englewood community. The series was developed because many of the "safe spaces" in the community ar...e closed on Saturdays.

So we decided to create this monthly series that showcase documentaries that entail some shock value. Each of the “shockumentaries” viewed at the past events focused on culture, hip hop, entertainment, community, history and then is followed up with a candid dialogue amongst the attendees.

The series was designed for the youth; however, the community as a whole as fully embraced this powerful project! As mentioned above, we will examine the assassination of our black women and discuss ways to combat this war!! Hope to see you there!!
