Film Screening: Ninety-Two: The Silent Revolt No One Saw Coming
Join the Westport Library, TEAM Westport, and Navigating in Heels for a screening of Ninety-Two: The Silent Revolt No One Saw Coming, a documentary chronicling Black women’s collective awakening to an America they thought they knew.
Through personal stories filled with wisdom, reflection, and stoic defiance, the film explores Black women’s evolving relationship with work, ambition, caregiving, exhaustion, and resistance. Black women are among the fastest-growing groups of breadwinners in America, yet they continue to face disproportionate burnout, workplace inequity, financial strain, and invisible labor. The film redefines rebellion as the mastery of one’s inner world, a conscious act of self-sovereignty and a sweeping step toward freedom.
The screening begins at 6:30 pm and is followed by a talkback with director Jade D. Singleton and Donisha Diagne, founder of Navigating in Heels.
