Florida Now Screening: Free Angela & All Political Prisoners
2026-02-15 14:00 - 16:00
Join us for a powerful community screening and conversation about the life, activism, and political persecution of Angela Davis. This documentary traces how state repression, racism, and surveillance shaped one of the most important liberation movements of the 20th century, and how those same systems continue to impact organizers, Black communities, and political prisoners today.
As Florida heads into another difficult legislative session, we’re grounding ourselves in history, solidarity, and collective learning. This virtual gathering is open to everyone who wants to better understand how these struggles connect to the work we’re doing now in our local communities.
