Film Screening - Legacy: Apartheid's Shadow

Event Image
Legacy Apartheid's Shadow

This powerful exploration of South Africa’s enduring legacy of racial domination speaks to the global structures of inequality shaping the world today. Awarded Best South African Documentary, the film has screened at leading institutions—including the World Bank, Yale’s Whitney, and the South African Embassy—and has proven a potent catalyst for dialogue on global themes of race, power, and accountability. This 2025 Oscar® Long-Listed documentary occupies a unique position in the educational market, as no other films currently address Apartheid with the same scope and access. Additionally, the film is directed by a South African woman of color, bringing a lived perspective to the historical analysis.

Join us for a screening of the film, followed by a live Q&A with the director, Tara Moore. Refreshments will be provided.

Additionally, those interested in studying abroad in South Africa for the Spring 2027 semester will have the opportunity to speak with the faculty co-leads, Dr. Phillippa Thiuri and Dr. Makini Beck.
