America ReFramed

Blurring the Color Line

By Crystal Kwok. A production of Groovy Peach Goddess Productions and 127 Wall Street Productions, in association with the Center for Asian American Media (CAAM).

BLURRING THE COLOR LINE follows director Crystal Kwok as she unpacks the history behind her grandmother’s family, who were neighborhood grocery store owners in the Black community of Augusta, Georgia during the Jim Crow era. By centering women’s experiences, Kwok poses critical questions around the intersections of race, power, and identity in the American South.
