Join us for a powerful community screening of Boyz n the Hood, the groundbreaking debut film from director John Singleton starring Cuba Gooding Jr., Ice Cube, and Morris Chestnut. Set in South Central Los Angeles, this landmark drama offers a deeply human portrait of friendship, family, responsibility, and the pressures facing young men growing up amid violence and systemic inequality. Following the screening, Stephen Flanders will lead a thoughtful discussion exploring the film’s enduring cultural impact and its themes of identity and opportunity.

Popcorn and drinks will be included.

After the film, you are welcome to join Stephen for dinner at Three Tomatoes. (Attendees are responsible for their own food and drink expenses at the restaurant.) If you plan to join him, please email the Osher office at osher@dartmouth.edu to add your name to our reservation.
