Jeff Farber’s new film explores the intersection of family dignity and racial injustice in the experiences of Vermont’s transracial families. Says Farber, “LIVING ON THE FAULT LINE reveals what it’s like raising and being raised in such a family while examining racial identity development, the habituated misconceptions of ‘color’ and the damaging effects of racial stereotyping.” Octavio Warnock-Graham’s SILENCES (20 minutes), about his experience growing up as a bi-racial son, will be shown at the Friday show only. Sponsored by Vermont Film Commission. Community Partners: American Friends Service Committe of Vermont, Peace and Justice Center. Post-film event: Jeff Farber will discuss the film after each show. Approxiately 75 minutes.
