[Marxism] Call For Performers : MEC Film & Culture Series Spring 2005 Schedule



Calling all performers to the second toughest stage,
(next to the Apollo), in all of New York.......

Going strong since 2001,
The Medgar Evers College Film & Culture Series,
Founders Auditorium.

Bill Cosby challenged the audience to look at ourselves,
because our ancestors worked too long and too hard.
The characters of Kayhan Irani made us know their
experience. Danny Glover spoke of the images we
must create, M-1 spoke truth to power, Talib Kweli
discussed the role of the artists, Buckshot got all the Brooklyn
love. Flo Brown's rhymes repped Brick City, Abby Dobson
hit melodic notes, Karen Gibson Rock's poeticmusic showed
us beautiful places, Phyastarter and Oosagyefu's words, power
and sounds took us to higher levels, while Harlem 125 had them
cracking up.

These are just a few of the people that have graced and rocked
the Founders Auditorium stage and if you have what it takes
here's your chance to move the crowd!

Interested performers should submit DVD's, CD's or
Performance Videos to:
