Just prior to the Pilgrim's arrival, a plague decimated New England's coastal Native American population, altering the course of colonialism. This is the story of the Great Dying and how tribal leaders are learning from the past as they deal with the effects of today's pandemic.
SWING LO' explores the life and tragic passing of up-and-coming visual artist Michael Richards, a New Yorker of Jamaican descent who died in the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Michael's body of work explores the Black experience in America. His life and art are discussed in the film by a handful of his peers and fans, including artists Dread Scott, Luis Grachos, and Charo Oquet, along with Perez Art Museum director Franklin Sirmans, gallerist Genaro Ambrosino, and curator Christine Y Kim, among others. The film explains how his work was preserved by his cousin in her garage for two decades until it was rediscovered by two curators - Melissa Levin and Alex Fialho, who have worked tirelessly to bring it back into the public eye.
