DOCLANDS Documentary Film Festival

History isn’t just found in books—it lives in the music. 🪕✨

We were honored to host Patrice Strahan of the Black Banjo & Fiddle Fellowship (Oakland Public Conservatory of Music) for a special screening of BOIL DOWN THAT CABBAGE.

After watching Candace Williamson’s moving short film, 100 students got to experience the music firsthand. Patrice didn’t just perform—she brought the film’s history to life, sharing the deep and vital roots of the banjo in Black American culture.

A huge thank you to Patrice and for an absolutely stellar experience. 🎶🖤
