A Reckoning in Boston

Presented by The Lindquist College of Arts & Humanities

Utah Humanities, Weber State’s Lindquist College of Arts & Humanities and Westminster College’s School of Arts and Sciences invite communities throughout Utah to join us for a special screening of “A Reckoning in Boston,” followed by a live Q&A with the filmmaker James Rutenbeck and subject/producer Kafi Dixon.

About the film: Coming together at a night course at a community center, Kafi Dixon and Carl Chandler were seeking to transform their lives. When James Rutenbeck, a white suburban filmmaker comes to make a film about the school, he is forced to come to terms with his own complicity in racist structures in the community. Kafi and Carl come on board as producers of the film and the three bring to light the history of systemic racism that has spanned generations, along with its modern implications. A RECKONING IN BOSTON shows that transformation, healing and social change begins within each of us.
