Middletown Redux
Screening of Middletown
Redux, a twenty-six-minute
documentary that captures the process of collaboration between Muncie’s black
community and Ball State University students and faculty. In their own words, students, faculty and
community members comment on the project’s evolution and the relationships
formed between the campus and community. This informative and compelling film
illustrates the process of creating a rich ethnography out of fieldwork and the
rewards of collaborating with local communities.
On Thursday night, Luke Eric Lassiter, chief faculty advisor and ethnographer on the project, will speak in Yeager Auditorium at 7:30 pm about this work. Please see separate announcement for Lassiter’s talk.
