11:30AM (14 mins) drama, period piece

dir. Quincy LeNear Gossfield, Deondray Gossfield

Welcome to the world of Claude McKay, a gay writer of the Harlem Renaissance whose racy 1926 novel, Home to Harlem, became the first best-seller published by a Black writer. Surrender your preconceptions of story and how it’s told; you’re at the Congo Cabaret.
