Sundance award-winning documentary, AMERICAN BLACKOUT kicks off its n ational campaign, END THE BLACKOUT WEEK'.
New York-American Blackout, recently featured in the New York Times, chronicles the recurring patterns of disenfranchisement witnessed from 2000- 2004, including the systematic suppression of the African American vote in Florida in 2000 and Ohio in 2004. Director Executive Producer, Ian Inaba, believe it is critical to bring the film into communities where it can have the most transformative impact, and to gather voters and would-be voters of all ages to watch the film in the hopes it serves as an alarming wakeup call for minority voters. Nation-wide End the Blackout Week, which will take place September 25 -October 1, 2006 , will provide organizations and communities with a free copy of film, a h ost guide, and marketing materials to ensure a successful screening.
If you would like to help End the Blackout and join forces with a growing network of other Community Screening Hosts across the country, please respond with a proposed date, time, and venue for the screening. Also, please be sure to tell us whether or not the screening will be open to the public and if there is an admission fee so that we can promote the screenings appropriately. Again, if you're interested please send a request with host information, place and date to
