Black Roots: a film screening

All Ages

Peter and Teanna Okojie present us with the touching, compelling story of an African American military veteran’s journey to Nigeria’s Badagry slave port—coined “The Point of No Return”—as he walks the same path as his ancestors.

This is an installment of an ongoing series of short form documentary films centered around black veterans and other inspiring stories of Africans and African Americans.

Filmmaker Peter Okojie will be on-hand for a discussion of this film and the larger project following the screening.
