Join us at a venue with close ties to the Sun Ra Arkestra for this screening of the Afrofuturist classic Space Is The Place. John Coney's 1974 film features Sun Ra as a space and time traveler and includes rare performance footage. "For [Sun Ra], outer space wasn't just a gimmick or a convenient source of song titles. It was a zone where racism was inoperative, where blacks could make their own destinies."—Jon Pareles, New York Times
