October 13-15 and October 19-22 At Maysles Cinema
Congo in Harlem is an annual series of films and events at Maysles Documentary Center focused on the history, politics, and culture of the Democratic Republic of Congo. It is the flagship event of CONGO WEEK, a week of activities that commemorates the millions of lives lost in the Congo conflict while celebrating the enormous human and natural potential that exists in the country.
Each year we offer a diverse program that aims to deepen our community's understanding of Congo, but most importantly we want people to have fun! Congo in Harlem is more than just movies and discussions -- it's an opportunity to discover Congo's culture, learn about its history, and engage around its challenges.
