Cornell NorCal is pleased to announce on behalf of Abby Ginzberg '71:


Please join the filmmakers at the Bay Area premiere of the award-winning documentary concerning the Willard Straight building takeover in 1969.


Through the stories of those who were on the front lines of the effort to create the College of Ethnic Studies at SF State University and those fighting for a Black Studies Department at Cornell University, Agents of Change takes viewers to the crossroads of change and controversy at a pivotal time in American history, shedding new light on today's Black Lives Matter and campus protests.


Film screens at 1pm, followed by discussion with activists from SF State featured in the film and the filmmakers, Frank Dawson and Abby Ginzberg. 

Pam Moore of KRON will moderate the discussion. 


A reception follows from 3-4 pm in the upstairs mezzanine of the Castro.


Register HERE.

 

Please phone 510-367-3499 or email Abby Ginzberg '71 with questions.
