Within Our Gates

Date: Sunday, July 18, 2021
Time: 4–5:30pm
Location: O Cinema South Beach @ 1130 Washington Avenue

The story of an idealistic Black schoolteacher, Oscar Micheaux's 1920 Within Our Gates—censored when originally released, and now celebrated as a key work of early Black cinema by a pathbreaking director—was a fierce rebuke to the white supremacy glorified in racist films like Birth of a Nation. Screen a restored version of the film scored by DJ Spooky and get a brief intro to a new virtual exhibition, co-produced with The Wolfsonian Public Humanities Lab, that explores the confident and creative "new negro" identity asserted by Harlem Renaissance figures whose careers ran parallel to Micheaux's.

Presented with the Miami Beach Film Society.

$10; $8 for seniors, students, and teachers (w/ valid ID); FREE for Miami Beach Film Society/Wolfsonian members (w/ promo code)
