SUMMARY:Milwaukee Film Presents, Shorts: Treasured Heirlooms
DESCRIPTION:Milwaukee Film’s Sixth annual Black History Month celebration will showcase engaging and entertaining film screenings and conversations curated by the Black Lens program throughout February. ABHM is proud to partner with them on two showings this month:\nShorts: Treasured Heirlooms showing February 10th at 12 PM at the Oriental Theatre\nFrom the tingling sensation of the alcohol spray following a haircut to the quick-paced hand games of our youth that occupied us for hours, the essence of Blackness has continuously worked as a dynamic archive of rites of passage and traditions that hold a special place in defining who we are. “TREASURED HEIRLOOMS” is a short film program delving into how Black folks globally are actively engaged in preserving, archiving, and creating approaches to ensure the endurance of our cherished traditions. This reflective cinematic offering aims to encourage us to embrace our traditions intimately, connecting us with both our past and future selves. – Marquise Mays, Black Lens Programmer\nShorts: Treasured Heirlooms featuring:\n\nWILD MAGNOLIAS Dir. Alexandra Kern\nMORE THAN HAIR Dir.

Today approximately 90% of that land is no longer in Black hands. Various factors have been employed to take Black land, including violence, eminent domain and government discrimination. But it is a little-known issue — heirs’ property — that has had a devastating effect on Black land ownership. Gaining Ground: The Fight for Black Land is a timely and stirring documentary from Emmy-nominated producer/director Eternal Polk and Al Roker Entertainment that examines the causes, effects what is being done to fight the exploitation of these issues, and how landowners are reclaiming their agricultural legacy and creating paths to generational wealth.\n \n\n
