  • Exhibit: Poets and Publishers of the Black Arts Movement

    ZSR Library, Special Collections & Archives Research Room (Room 625)
    The 1960s and 70s saw a flowering of African-American poetry unprecedented in American literary history. The poets of the Black Arts Movement fused artistic experimentation with political engagement, giving voice to the complexities of the Black experience in the years immediately following the civil rights movement. This exhibit draws on ZSR Special Collections’ extensive holdings to highlight the achievements of both the poets and the people who published them during these pivotal decades in American history.

    –
    ZSR Library, Library Auditorium (Room 404)
    Marinette Pichon, one of the world’s great stars of football, set records on the French team before becoming a FIFA Legend with a career in the US. This film follows her fight to spread awareness on women’s rights in sport, coming out in an era where there is no such thing as LGBTQ+ rights. Her success fuels her desire to make a difference in the recognition of French women’s soccer, homosexuality, and equal opportunity. An uncompromising ode to freedom.
