SUMMARY:Mama Charlotte featuring film screenings
DESCRIPTION:Mama Charlotte returns from Tanzania to WorldBeat Center to screen her documentaries “Mama C: Urban Warrior In the African Bush” and “American Exile” this Saturday\, September 13th. Come join us for this free event 7pm-9pm. \nMama C: Urban Warrior\nRaised in the violent segregation of 1960s Kansas\, former Black Panther and artist Mama C has lived in Africa for most of her life. Her story is a journey through African identity and gives us a powerful meditation on identity\, exile and art.\n\nAmerican Exile\nAmerican Exile chronicles some of the history of Pete O’Neal\, founder and Chairman of the Kansas City Chapter of the Black Panther Party. The documentary by two Berkeley University grads\, is narrated by the award winning actress Alfre Woodard and features never before seen footage of his life in exile and areas that previous documentaries have never touched upon. \n\n\n\n\nAbout Charlotte Hill O’Neal\nCharlotte Hill O’Neal is known by several names. Residents of the Arusha region of northern Tanzania\, where she has lived for decades\, call her Mama C. Others call her Mama Africa because of the scarification on her cheeks and the ring piercing her nose\, and because she encourages the local youth to be proud of their culture and heritage. \nHer Orisha spiritual name is Osotunde Fasuyi. She was initiated several years ago as a priestess in the Yoruba belief system\, which originated about 10 000 years ago in present-day Nigeria. Enslaved Africans brought it to the Americas and the Caribbean\, where it syncretized with other belief systems and is now practiced throughout these areas.  \n\nCharlotte is bedecked in jewelry and beads. Some items represent Orisha deities and others are traditional Maasai beadwork. \n\nShe is a former member of the Black Panther Party\, who fled the United States with her husband Pete O’Neal half a century ago.  \nCharlotte speaks Swahili with a Midwest drawl and her skin is decorated with tattoos: a black panther on her left shoulder and Sankofa\, a symbol the Akan people of Ghana use to represent the importance of gaining knowledge and wisdom from the past\, on her arm. African instruments\, including the stringed nyatiti traditionally played by the Luo of present-day Kenya\, replace the gun once strapped across her body.
