Anti-Racist Film Club this Month

Hello folks! Our film selection for Anti-Racist Film Club this month is The Woman King (2022).

The Woman King is a historical epic about General Nanisca and her leadership of the Agojie—an elite army of female warriors who fought for the West African kingdom of Dahomey. During the heights of the transatlantic slave trade, Nanisca and her army fight to liberate their people from Portuguese slavers and their enemies in the Oyo Empire.

TW: This is a PG- 13 film with violence, some gore, and a depiction of sexual assault.

This month, we have a slight change to our normal schedule. Instead of showing the film on the second Sunday, we will be screening The Woman King on the FIRST Sunday in September. So, this Sunday, 9/1, join us upstairs at First Olympia UMC in the Gathering Place @12:30pm. There will be a light lunch provided before/during the screening. Our discussion will still be held on Monday, 9/9 @7pm over Zoom*.
If you're interested in either of these events, please RSVP here:

Our September Schedule looks like this:
  • Sunday, 9/1 @12:30pm - The Woman King (2022) screening at FUMCO
  • Monday, 9/9 @ 7:00PM - Zoom film discussion

*note that there is a full week between our screening and discussion this month.

Can't wait until Sunday? Check out the newest episode of the ARFC podcast! This month, Lauren sat down with Pastor Alexa to discuss The Woman King.
