This presentation hosted by Black History Studies tells the story of the African Americans who left America to create the Jazz Age in Paris between the First and Second World Wars. After peace was signed at Versailles, many African Americans remained in Europe rather than return to the brutal segregation and racism of America. Over the next two decades, they formed an expatriate community of musicians, entertainers and entrepreneurs, primarily congregating in Paris's hilly Montmarte neighbourhood.
There will be a discussion after the screening. Bring a pen!
