The Silence of Quarantine Film and Panel Discussion

Thursday, Sept. 28, 6-8pm | The Collective Community Arts Center

Hosted by Arts & Cultural Resources and the Lafayette History Museum
Local filmmaker, Katrina Miller's most recent project The Silence of Quarantine, follows two elderly African American women living in Boulder, Colorado during the Covid-19 Quarantine shut-down. With churches closed, limited visitors, and nowhere to go, these women are in danger of becoming shadows of themselves and losing their lives while nobody knows how to help them. This generation’s history, which has roots in the early days of desegregation, is also in danger of being lost and forgotten.  With a soundtrack of gospel music, The Silence of Quarantine captures stories from Colorado’s past that bring to light the strong presence African Americans have had in this town over the last century. If nothing else, this legacy must survive.
