DESCRIPTION:Urban Planning Film Seminar screening/discussion.\n\nFLAG WARS 
 (2004)\nThur 2/22 @ 6pm\nRoom 3-133 \n\nShot over a four-year period\, Lin
 da Goode Bryant and Laura Poitras' Flag Wars is a poignant and very person
 al look at a community in Columbus\, Ohio\, undergoing gentrification. Wha
 t happens when gay white homebuyers move into a working-class black neighb
 orhood? As the new residents restore the beautiful but run-down homes\, bl
 ack homeowners must fight to hold onto their community and heritage. The i
 nevitable clashes expose prejudice and self-interest on both sides\, as we
 ll as the common dream to have a home to call your own. Winner of the Jury
  Award at the South by Southwest Film Festival\, Flag Wars is a candid\, u
 nvarnished portrait of privilege\, poverty and local politics taking place
  across America. An Independent Television Service (ITVS) and National Bla
 ck Programming Consortium (NBPC) co-presentation. A Diverse Voices Project
  (DVP) Selection.
