Coming to DVD this coming Tuesday, January 14: THE CONTRADICTIONS OF FAIR HOPE
S Epatha Merkerson and Rockell Metcalf’s look at the complex legacy of African American mutual aid associations in the South debuted at the San Diego Black Film Festival in 2012. The doc went on to screen at Chicago’s Black Harvest, Annapolis, BronzeLens, Langston Hughes, Pan African, and the San Francisco, Montreal, Newark, Texas, and American Black Film Festivals, among others.
I previously wrote about the film here.
