Fundi: “The Story of Ella Baker” reveals the instrumental role that Ella Baker, a friend and advisor to Martin Luther King, played in shaping the American civil rights movement. The dynamic activist was affectionately known as the Fundi, a Swahili word for a person who passes skills and knowledge from generation to another. By looking at the 1960’s from the perspective of Ella Baker, FUNDI adds an essential understanding of the U.S. civil rights movement. The film will be followed by a Q&A with Professor Terry Buffington. Dinner an drinks will be available.
