Movie Night: American Fiction

As Black History Month wraps up, SMCSU and SMC Mentorship would like to Cineplex and watch American Fiction, which premiered at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) and won the People’s Choice Award.

American Fiction (2023) Monk is a frustrated novelist who’s fed up with the establishment that profits from Black entertainment that relies on tired and offensive tropes. To prove his point, he uses a pen name to write an outlandish Black book of his own, a book that propels him to the heart of hypocrisy and the madness he claims to disdain.
