NYC Release Event: "Keith Lamar: SWEET"

  • Maysles Documentary Center 343 Lenox Avenue New York, NY, 10027 United States (map)

Join us for the world premiere of “Keith Lamar: SWEET”, a new single and film created by The Healing Project.

Written by Samora Pinderhughes, Keith LaMar, and Rafiq Bhatia (Son Lux), the single is the next step in an effort to halt the execution of LaMar; a poet, teacher, musician, writer and painter. He is also wrongfully incarcerated in the state of Ohio, framed for a prison riot. His current execution date is set for 2027, even though he has maintained his innocence for nearly three decades—all while being held in indefinite solitary confinement. The film was co-directed by Pinderghughes, Amanda Krische, and Christian Padron.

The event, free and open to the public, will feature a film screening and talk-back with the film co-directors and LaMar (who will call in for the discussion).
