ZERO hosts the Prostate Cancer in the Black Community film series throughout the country, using public viewings to highlight and raise awareness about prostate cancer within the Black community. Currently, there are three (3) films used, The Black Walnut (a docudrama by Terrance Afer-Anderson), If You Are My Brothers (a documentary by Reggie Hicks), and The Silent Killer (A documentary by Landi Maduro). 

During each event there will be food or light refreshments provided, a screening of one of these films, followed by a panel discussion that includes the film’s writer/director, a prostate cancer survivor from the community, a physician (urologist and/or medical oncologist), and a researcher. During this discussion the members on this panel will talk about the film and how prostate cancer affects the Black community, and also provide some suggestions as to what each of us can do to address some of the significant barriers and disparities that the Black community faces regarding prostate cancer. After the panel discussion takes place the panel members will take questions from the audience, we encourage all that attend to participate and engage in this important conversation.
