PANEL: African American Storytellers on Screen
Perhaps the oldest tradition in acting is that of the "black storyteller." For centuries, African Americans have shared stories of hearth, home and community using the rich heritage of the African oral tradition to share and preserve history.
Today's black actor, writer and director continues to approach a role as that of "black storyteller" a means to giving a voice to explore the expressive power of the creative verbal arts and oral traditions that shape American culture and communication.
This discussion will be led by the esteemed Ambassador Shabazz, the eldest daughter born to Dr. Betty Shabazz and Malcolm X Shabazz. She is a sought after speaker, producer, writer, and diplomat. Ambassador Shabazz's hope is to motivate and inspire one to have a better understanding of his or her history, the surrounding world, and their constructive place in it, thus encouraging positive self-concept.
PANELISTS:
Chris Haley, actor & Research Director for the History of Slavery in Maryland, Maryland State Archives, nephew of Alex Haley (ROOTS)
Scotti Preston, actor, Living History consultant
Rain Pryor, producer, writer & actor: film & television (Daughter of Richard Pryor)
and other notable actors
