We Want the Funk! Screening at County Library

Adults are invited to County Library on Friday, February 20th at 11:00am for a screening of “We Want the Funk!”

“WE WANT THE FUNK! is a syncopated voyage through funk’s history, from its African and jazz roots to James Brown’s early work and the rise of Parliament Funkadelic. Distinctly urban, funk reflected a post-Civil Rights sensibility. The film explores the symbiotic relationship between funk’s explosion and the political and racial dynamics of 1970s inner-city America.” -Kanopy
