PREMIERE SCREENING!

Racism is the belief that characteristics and abilities can be attributed to people simply on the basis of their race and that some racial groups are superior to others. Racist behaviour can be not just overt, such as treating some people according to their race or colour, but also covert, where society systematically treats groups according to some form of discriminating judgement.

YYC Colours is a documentary that is created to start discussions about racism in Calgary and Canada in general. The film took over a year and a half to produce. Over 100 interviews were recorded through a community call to action that contributed to the content of the film. The goal is to have people view the film and start having honest conversations about racism and privilege in our society. The subject of race can be very touchy, but if we as a society don't engage in the conversation and understand the problem, racism will never end.

The premiere screening of this film takes place on April 9 at 5pm at the Globe Cinema in Calgary, Canada. The theatre has limited seats, so if you wish to attend, please reserve your tickets. You will be asked to present your ticket at the door, so be sure to have an electronic or physical copy of it at the day of the screening.
