The Shirley Chisholm Story ,Who was Carter G Woodson? Black Power and the Vietnam war

1-5.30pm


VENUE: Imperial War Museum, Conference Room
Lambeth Road, SE1

Tube: Lambeth North
Welcome to the Imperial War Museum

Free entry: First Come, First Served


While the media focus on Barack Obama they forget to mention that the first black person to run for President was Shirley Chisholm in 1972. Chisholm was the Garveyite daughter of Guyanese and Barbadian immigrants. After becoming the first black Congresswoman,she ran for the highest office just 4 years after King was gunned down. Her story is incredible but has been suppressed.This is only the 4th time this film has been screened

The Vietnam war was going on at the same time as the Civil Rights movement. This presentation will look at how the US and French governments were able to get black people to fight in a war for "freedom" when they were seen as less than human in their own countries
