The African American Studies Program has been hosting a film festival, and tonight is the festival’s third screening, Black Dynamite (Scott Sanders, 2011), a hilarious send-up of 1970s Blaxploitation films. The festival, “When Bruce Lee Meets Bruce Leroy,” is celebrating the cross-cultural exchange of transnational Asian martial arts films and the 1970s Blaxploitation genre. Tonight’s screening is at 6:30 in ECTR 118. The screening is free and open to the public. The next installment will be Akira Kurosawa’s Jidaigeki classic Yojimbo (1961) on April 10.
