Black Bus Stop
Claudrena N. Harold, Kevin Jerome Everson
This film pays tribute to the Black Bus Stop, an informal yet iconic meeting spot for Black students on the campus of the University of Virginia in the US in the eighties and nineties. And today, at the same site, students become aware of their own selves, their Black identity and Black history. They reclaim this hallowed location to sing, dance and move to the rhythms of both their individual and collective history and cultural identity.
