Article

We are delighted to invite you to our Movie Screening Holiday Party! We are going to the movies together from the comfort of our homes! 

Please join us for the virtual screening of the film Go-Go City: Displacement and Protest in Washington, D.C. on December 20, at 2:00 PM EST/ 8:00 PM CET/ 11:00 AM PST.

The documentary dives into the rich tapestry of D.C.’s culture and sound, as well as the forces of economic and cultural gentrification that stand to mute them. The film interweaves scenes of protest as displaced communities rally around the city’s beloved Go-Go music to retake the streets. We know that gentrification and protest is a topic dear to our communities heart, as well as an appreciation for culture. 

Following the film, we’ll have a discussion with the film’s director, Samuel George of the Bertelsmann Foundation, as well as Senior Fellows working to address displacement.  

Please register here. We hope to see you there!
