Films: The Africa Channel`s "The Soul Of Ashanti" & "Youssou N`Dour: I Bring What I Love"Date: 12/04/2009 - 12/04/2009 These films were brought to us by the people of Ghana and Senegal. Following the films will be a reception discussing Peace, Religion, & African Kingdoms. The "I Luv Africa" film series and discussion showcases independent films depicting stories about African culture and people while helping start dialogue around awareness of current topics in Africa. In addition the film series is apart of the continuing RWUL "I Luv Africa" documentary film project. The film project is about African people sharing their own unique stories of Africa. The main focus of the film project is to shatter some of the stereotypes associated with the continent. The film screenings will be for community viewing only and the film series is a promotional event to promote RWUL, local non-profit organizations, and future community film ventures. Donations will be accepted at the event and proceeds will go to our sponsoring charities United Families for Sudan and Trees for the Future.
