California State University, Northridge’s Spring 2025 Cinematheque is collaborating with CSUN’s Department of Africana Studies to celebrate Black History Month with a special series, “Black Cinema: Cultural Labor and Liberation,” featuring two films by acclaimed director Robert Townsend, “The Hollywood Shuffle” and “10,000 Black Men Named George.”

“This event reflects how the Mike Curb College of Arts, Media and Communication celebrates Black History Month and the theme is labor,” said cinema and television arts professor Dianah Wynter, curator of the Cinematheque. “We celebrate it with film art and fine art to show how the arts can support and reinforce culture.”
