Cuban Women in Hip-Hop/Short Films
Director Jamiah Adams will be present for a post-screening Q&A session. Cuban women in Havana create and perform socially conscious hip-hop, everywhere from clubs to sidewalks. In interviews, they discuss the ways in which the rhymes they create serve as a vehicle for self-expression and community involvement.
