Black History Month Film Screening

Presented in collaboration with Student Experience Guelph and the Central Student Association, join us for a special Black History Month Movie Night as we screen Netflix’s powerful new film, The Six Triple Eight. This compelling movie tells the inspiring true story of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, the only all-Black, all-female unit that overcame immense challenges during World War II. Come immerse yourself in a tale of courage, resilience, and history that continues to impact our world today. After the screening, participate in a meaningful discussion to explore how their story resonates with today’s ongoing fight for justice and equity. Don’t miss this opportunity to honour Black history, connect with fellow students, and enjoy an evening of storytelling and community.

This event is open to all U of G students, staff, faculty and the wider Guelph community. Last year we asked all participants to register because we had a raffle going on! Because we don’t have a raffle this year, registration is not required.
