The Black Dahlia Murder + Dying Fetus

The Black Dahlia Murder has proven, despite tragedy, to be an unstoppable force. Formed in Oak Park, MI in 2001, the melodic death unit has spent two decades working their collective ass off in the near-relentless cycle of drop-killer- album/tour-hard-and-long, earning the love and respect of the metal community ???? DYING FETUS established a reputation for uncompromising integrity with a slew of classic albums and today rides a resurgence of respect and esteem with a new generation. As Revolver Magazine wrote upon the release of their first new material since 2017’s Wrong One To Fuck With: “Their unique sound has always straddled the line between extreme metal instrumentation and heavy hardcore chugginess, and right now, they’re extremely well-regarded by many of today’s heavy-hitting hardcore acts, as well as their fair share of death metal and deathcore up-and-comers.” Join these metal executioners on their co-headlining Beg To Serve Tour on Thursday, October 17th with special guests Spite, Angelmaker, and Vomit Forth ????

Presented by Northeastern University and Mills Performing Arts, in collaboration with the Oakland International Film Festival. This event is free and open to the public. A special screening of two short films discussing the legacy of the Black Panther Party, which was founded in Oakland, California on October 15,1966. The films will be followed by a question & answer session with filmmaker Damien McDuffie and David Roach, founder of The Oakland International Film Festival. _INTO THE ARCHIVES: THE FIRST MONUMENT_ Until 2021, there were no official monuments to the Black Panther Party in Oakland, the city where they became legendary. This finally changed through an effort led by Fredrika Newton, the widow of Minister of Defense Huey Newton. Following sculptor Dana King from conceptualization through unveiling, The First Monument chronicles the creation of the Huey Newton bust now raised in West Oakland. Run Time: 15:54 _INTO THE ARCHIVES: BILLY X_ In an unassuming house in Sacramento, one of the most comprehensive private collections of Black Panthers material sits on the shelves of original Party member and archivist William “Billy X” Jennings. Featuring images of Tupac Shakur, Maya Angelou, and many other familiar faces, Into The Archives gives you a rare glimpse at a historical exhibition of Bay Area history, most of which has still not been digitized. Run Time: 9:33 DAMIEN MCDUFFIE Damien McDuffie is a digital archivist and creative technologist from Oakland, CA. He is the Founder of Black Terminus, an augmented reality (AR) platform for Black Art and the Cultural Archive. He is building the world’s first AR studio and Black migration agency for visually immersive tours and virtual archives that bring Black history, migration, and creativity to life. Inspired by his work as a Black Panther Party archivist and a need to share the archives with disparate family members abroad, he built a platform that uses the virtual archives to tell script-driven, oral history-driven, or personality-driven narratives centered on the rich history of Black experience. He is a classically trained writer, multi-platform storyteller, and lover of Oakland, driven by stories that inspire community, connectivity, and creative courage. _________________________ _Bridging Perspectives: Exploring Social Justice with the Oakland International Film Festival_ is a transformative three-part film screening series that delves into pressing social issues of our time: climate change, racial and gender justice.

Back in Ghana, he worked as an influential producer, crafting recordings for Pat Thomas (his future collaborator) and C.K. Mann, among many others.
