About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours

The James Brown African American Room presents a Women's History Month Film Screening of the documentary Madan Sara!

The women known as Madan Sara in Haiti are at the forefront of the battle for a more robust, inclusive economy. Despite facing intense hardship and social stigma, the hard work of the Madan Sara puts their children through school, houses their families, and helps to ensure a better life for generations to come. This film amplifies the calls of the Madan Sara as they speak directly to society to share their dreams for a more just Haiti.

A discussion with producer Lulaine Childs will follow the screening.
