Sunday, November 13, 2:00-4:00pm “Blacks Without Borders: Chasing the American dream in South Africa”
A groundbreaking documentary that takes a heartfelt look at the emotional journey of a group of African Americans who called it quits in the U.S. to start a new life in South Africa. With 4 to 5 million immigrants coming to America every year to pursue the American dream why are they leaving? Blacks Without Borders answers that question and more…the film chronicles 12 modern day globetrotters who have uprooted their lives in pursuit of their dreams and are finding that America is not the only land of opportunity.
The film provides a candid and touching tale of sacrifice, hardship and great rewards by U.S. born citizens. Blacks Without Borders examines the trials and tribulations that come along with being an outsider in a foreign land…dealing with “xenophobia” to adjusting to the cultural differences to combating the negative perceptions that America now garners around the world. From great sacrifice comes event greater rewards, this film reveals the incredible lifestyle these worldly go getters now live. Blacks Without Borders is a tell-all, “no-holds-barred” film that brings a whole new perspective to living your ultimate life.
