Every Cook Can Govern Screening

This feature-length documentary tells the story of Trinidadian historian, journalist and socialist CLR James by weaving rare footage with scholarly interviews. As the director, Ceri Dingle, puts it in the synopsis: "The result is an epic feature-length documentary which grapples with issues from colonialism to cricket, from slavery to Shakespeare, from Marxism to the movies and from reading to revolution." Learn about the life of an often-forgotten icon, and don't forget the movie snacks!
