Professor Frank Wilderson was in Washington, D.C. on Saturday February 5, 2011 to discuss his books Incognegro: A Memoir of Exile and Apartheid and Red, White and Black: Cinema and the Structure of U.S. Antagonisms. He read from Incognegro which is about his time as a member of the armed wing of the African National Congress in South Africa’s liberation struggle. It was this work that had him described by Nelson Mandela as a threat to national security for his “post-apartheid” support of Chris Hani, communism and protracted armed struggle until actual and genuine power was achieved. We were there to capture the event and allow others to see/hear for themselves the discussion that took place with this scholar and freedom fighter.
