WAMCO requested submissions in 2021 on all kinds of discrimination; movements including BLM and MeToo; and the many divisions in the country. This event is the result.
Included are short plays and films, monologues, songs, and more. For Women’s History Month, the initial showing will be free on Zoom on Saturday, March 19, 2022 at 3 p.m. EST

All those RSVP'd to this program will receive both an online screener for Summer of Soul and a Q&A with Director/Executive Producer Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson and New York Times critic-at-large Wesley Morris.
*This is not a live screening and conversation, you will receive both of these elements via email. You do not need to log-in at any specific time. You will receive the screener by END OF DAY on Friday, Feb. 25. The screener will be live for 72 HOURS.*
SYNOPSIS:
In his acclaimed debut as a filmmaker, Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson presents a powerful and transporting documentary—part music film, part historical record created around an epic event that celebrated Black history, culture and fashion. Over the course of six weeks in the summer of 1969, just one hundred miles south of Woodstock, The Harlem Cultural Festival was filmed in Mount Morris Park (now Marcus Garvey Park). The footage was largely forgotten–until now. SUMMER OF SOUL shines a light on the importance of history to our spiritual well-being and stands as a testament to the healing power of music during times of unrest, both past and present. The feature includes concert performances by Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone, Sly & the Family Stone, Gladys Knight & the Pips, Mahalia Jackson, B.B. King, The 5th Dimension and more.
SUMMER OF SOUL premiered at the Sundance Film Festival, where it won both the Grand Jury Prize and Audience Award. It is streaming on Hulu in conjunction with Disney General Entertainment’s Onyx Collective; Searchlight Pictures released it theatrically.

You are invited to a special screening of The Power of the Dog. Followed by a Q&A with SAG Awards Nominee Kirsten Dunst.
SYNOPSIS:
Severe, pale-eyed, handsome, Phil Burbank is brutally beguiling. All of Phil’s romance, power and fragility is trapped in the past and in the land: He can castrate a bull calf with two swift slashes of his knife; he swims naked in the river, smearing his body with mud. He is a cowboy as raw as his hides.
The year is 1925. The Burbank brothers are wealthy ranchers in Montana. At the Red Mill restaurant on their way to market, the brothers meet Rose, the widowed proprietress, and her impressionable son Peter. Phil behaves so cruelly he drives them both to tears, reveling in their hurt and rousing his fellow cowhands to laughter – all except his brother George, who comforts Rose then returns to marry her.
As Phil swings between fury and cunning, his taunting of Rose takes an eerie form – he hovers at the edges of her vision, whistling a tune she can no longer play. His mockery of her son is more overt, amplified by the cheering of Phil’s cowhand disciples. Then Phil appears to take the boy under his wing. Is this latest gesture a softening that leaves Phil exposed, or a plot twisting further into menace?
