San Francisco Black Film Festival

From the Oakland Post,
SFBFF @Calvary Church
Jacquie Taliaferro’s “10-10 Gotta Win,” looks at the 2010 District 10 Supervisors race in San Francisco, with a panel discussion to follow hosted by Dr. Joseph Bryant Jr., senior pastor at Calvary Hill Community Baptist Church [part of an afternoon double-feature event Saturday, June 16 from noon-6PM - see flier at right].

“What is happening in District 10 is also happening in other Black communities across the country,” said Taliaferro.

“We are witnessing economic exclusion, limited educational opportunities and gentrification. Most of the time gentrification moves so slowly that most people don’t notice it, unless you are in it. It is not as blatant as bulldozers in South Africa, but it is just as effective.”
