Video Preview: “Brownstones To Red Dirt”
The African Heritage Diaspora Trail Bermuda will be holding a series of public events in the lead-up to International Day of Remembrance for the Victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade, and one of them will be the screening of “Brownstones To Red Dirt” at the Liberty Theatre on March 25th at 6.30pm.
“Brownstones To Red Dirt” is a documentary film about a pen pal program that connects children from Brooklyn, NY housing projects and war orphans living in Freetown, Sierra Leone.
The children start with no knowledge of what their pen pals’ lives are like. But soon, stereotyped images of African plains full of zebras and lions and American mansions are replaced with the realities of life in each place.

Tickets for the screening are $25, and $10 for children and seniors.
