SUMMARY:Yanawana Herbolarios Presents: Takeover Film Screening & Community Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a screening of “Takeover” (2021) and a conversation centered on houselessness\, takeovers\, and how we best protect our community and its members. \n\n\nTakeover explores the twelve historic hours on July 14\, 1970\, in which fifty members of the Young Lords Party stormed the dilapidated Lincoln Hospital in the South Bronx\, drove out their administrative staff\, barricaded entrances and windows\, and made their cries for decent healthcare known to the world. They raised the Puerto Rican flag atop the building\, as well as a banner reading “The People’s Hospital” – a nom de guerre still used today. Through archival footage\, seamless reenactments\, and modern-day interviews\, we follow the Young Lords’ resistance against institutions curated by wealth and white supremacy\, and their fight for the most basic of human rights: the right to accessible\, quality healthcare. \n\n\n\n\nTakeover! endeavors to capture the imagination of a new generation of activists\, and suggest actions that ordinary citizens can take to change the conversation — and the country. It is more vital than ever before that the bravery and behavior of the Young Lords be shown\, celebrated\, and built upon today. \n\n\n\n\nFEATURING THE PHOTOGRAPHS OF\nHiram Maristany \nPRODUCER\nTony Gerber \nEXECUTIVE PRODUCERS\nLuis A. Miranda\, Jr.\nLynn Nottage \nIN ASSOCIATION WITH\nJust Films | Ford Foundation\nOpen Society Foundations\nMiranda Family Fund\nThe National Museum of Puerto Rican Arts and Culture\nIFP New True Stories Initiative
