Documentary Film: "Decolonizing Science?" Film Screening and Dialogue with the Filmmaker

Join us for a powerful screening of Decolonizing Science?—a feature-length documentary created by Dr. Kendall Moore (Professor of Journalism and Film/Media at the University of Rhode Island) that confronts the legacy of Western science and its roots in colonization. The film traces how Indigenous, African, and Latinx scientific traditions have been systematically erased or dismissed—and calls for a reimagining of what science can look like when multiple ways of knowing are centered. Through compelling storytelling and community voices, the documentary challenges dominant narratives, interrogates the roles of institutions like museums and universities, and invites us to consider what ethical, decolonial scientific practice truly means. Dr. Moore will present the film and then lead a discussion afterwards.

Don't miss this thought-provoking event and the conversation it sparks.

All are welcome.
