Join the Intercultural Resource Center and the Department of Communication and Cinematic Arts at 6 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 19, in Hoover 105 for a screening of the film, “I Am Not Your Negro.”

Based on writer James Baldwin’s unfinished novel, “Remember This House,” this film tells the story of race in modern America and Baldwin’s interactions with civil rights leaders Medgar Evers, Malcom X and Martin Luther King Jr.

There will also be a brief Q&A with Professor Steven Classen, chair of the Department of Communication and Cinematic Arts and author of “Watching Jim Crow: The Struggles Over Mississippi TV.” Published by Duke University Press, Classen’s work received the 2004 McGannon Center Award for Social and Ethical Relevance in Communication Policy Research.
