"Charcoal": Screening and conversation with the filmmaker

Filmmaker Francesca Andre will screen her short film “Charcoal,” which captures the parallel stories of two Black women and their lifelong journey to overcome internalized colorism as they find self-acceptance and ultimately redemption. Then, in a conversation with UCSB psychologist Dr. Meridith Merchant, Andre will discuss her creative process, including the choice to focus on the theme of colorism.
