Juneteenth Free Community Screening of Becoming American: Philadelphia’s Story

Join us at 11am on Juneteenth for a special screening of Becoming American: Philadelphia’s Story followed by a Q&A with key film members at the Philadelphia Film Society Center. Becoming American: Philadelphia’s Story is a compelling new film exploring the nation’s founding through the lens of Philadelphia’s diverse communities and untold stories. As the country approaches its Semi quincentennial, the film offers a timely and deeply local perspective on the people, communities, and global influences that shaped America’s founding, including the vital role of Philadelphia’s early African American communities. Evoking important conversations about history, identity, and belonging, this powerful screening is a meaningful way to reflect on Juneteenth and Philadelphia’s enduring impact on the American story.
