Friday 24 April 6.30-9pm. Voluntary Action Islington, 200A Pentonville Road N1 9JP

Captain America 2 broke box office records and introduced us to a Black superhero. However, this movie owes a great deal to some shocking African-American history. Like blockbusters such as Captain Phillips, where factual history is turned on its head (the reason Somalis began hijacking European/US ships was due to such ships dumping toxic and nuclear waste into Somali waters, resulting in human birth defects). Some facts are missing for the sake of entertainment. Building on our previous movie breakdowns and presentations (African Superheroes Day, X Men, Planet of the Apes, Call of Duty and How to Brainwash the Youth and Make them act like Fools!), we present a forensic breakdown on the imagery and hidden Black history in this latest superhero instalment.

This event will start at 6.30pm. Latecomers may not get a seat. £7.00 in advance £8.00 on the door. Book tickets HERE
