Sundance Award- Winning Documentary American Blackout Opens In SF Friday Sept. 8th
"Engrossing, fast-paced, stylish... a powerful examination of voting
rights in America." -Sura Wood, HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
"…a provocative look at black disenfranchisement in the 2004
election." -David Halbfinger, NY TIMES
"…a muckraking indictment of … the systematic disenfranchisement of
African American voters…" -Kenneth Turan, LA TIMES
American Blackout gains unprecedented access to one of the most controversial and dangerous politicians in
America and examines the contemporary tactics used to control our democratic process and silence political dissent.
This film is a perfect hook for a feature looking at these formidable voting issues as we approach the 2006-midterm elections in November and with the recent debate in Congress over the renewal of the Voting Rights Act. It serves as an alarming wake-up call for voters that forces are actively conspiring to co-opt and even steal their votes.
Go see the film that tells the truth about voting discrimination of minorities in the 2000 & 2004 election.
Playing Sept 15th thru 21th at the
Landmark Opera Theatre VAN NESS in SAN FRANCISCO
