Power

Presented by the Jonathan B. Murray Center for Documentary Journalism. Free admission!

Details About the Film

An eye-opening essay film about a system of control that has gone largely unquestioned, Power is a sweeping chronicle of the history and evolution of policing in the United States. Filmmaker Yance Ford (Strong Island, True/False 2017) compellingly argues that the fear of racial difference is central to the origins of policing and to its unchecked expansion.

This screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Yance Ford.

Please note that FREE tickets for the public will be available at the Ragtag Box Office starting Monday, September 23 at 12PM. 

No more than four free tickets will be given to one person.

A free ticket guarantees you a seat until 10 minutes before showtime and not after. If all tickets have been distributed and there are open seats at 10 till, we will start seating the theater from the waiting list (queue). Ticket holders will continue to be admitted at this time if seats are available. This policy allows us to start on time and give the audience a distraction-free experience.
