In collaboration with the National Black Programming Consortium (NBPC), Firelight Media and Columbia University's Institute for Research in African-American Studies (IRAAS), the Schomburg is proud to premiere More than a Month, a provocative new film by African-American filmmaker Shukree Tilghman making his New York debut.
Through a challenging, complex, and often comedic journey, More than a Month explores what the treatment of history tells us about race and equality in “post-racial” America.
After the screening, the audience is invited to join media personality Amanda Seales as she leads a conversation with Shukree Hassan Tilghman, Schomburg Director Khalil Gibran Muhammad, and filmmaker Sharon LaCruise (Daisy Bates: First Lady of Little Rock) about the issues the films invites us all to consider. The exciting discussion will be streamed live on Facebook at
