Event Description
American Homeboy is a documentary film directed by Brandon Loran Maxwell that explores the complex origins of pachuco and cholo culture which sprouted from American soil more than 100 years ago in response to wartime sentiment, social alienation, and government discrimination only to become a pop culture phenomenon.
The film screening will be followed by a conversation and light reception. This event is free and open to the public, but RSVPs are encouraged as space is limited.
