When in Moscow
Description
Dorothy West and the Harlem Renaissance artists and activists get settled into the Grand Hotel and enjoy the lavish luxuries the Soviets have to offer. Caviar anyone?
While exploring Moscow, Mildred Jones and Langston Hughes push the prim and proper Dorothy out of her comfort zone. While partying, the group finally meets the director of the film, Carl Jungans but the all-Black cast sees red flags as the filmmaker reveals himself to be quite ignorant when it comes to race.
