SUMMARY:Exclusive: 'In Search of Phillis Wheatley Peters' Director Talk & Screening
DESCRIPTION:Explore the story of Phillis Wheatley Peters her genius\, her defiance\, and the love that stood with her against extraordinary odds.\n\nJoin us for a special screening and conversation with the filmmakers as part of the Museum of Old Newbury's MA250 series.\n\nIn September\, the Museum of Old Newbury hosted Askew Pictures\, a dynamic international documentary film team led by Leslie Askew\, producer and director of projects for SBS\, National Geographic\, Al Jazeera\, CBS\, BET\, PBS\, History Channel\, and CNN (including the award-winning CNN Heroes). During that visit\, Askew interviewed Newburyport resident Kabria Baumgartner\, who appears throughout the film.\n\nAfter the film's premiere to a packed house at the Museum of African American History in Boston\, we were thrilled when Askew Pictures offered to bring the film to Newburyport for a screening in our museum. We're proud to feature this program as part of MA250 programming\, as the film highlights Phillis Wheatley's belief in the Revolutionary cause and the era's urgent\, unfinished promises of liberty.
