I am writing this article from my hospital bed, where I hope I will be able to tolerate a new medication that will stabilize my heart. In mid-June, I became a stroke expert, having had a brainstem stroke (a pontine infarction, for those readers who are neurogenic communication disorders specialists). I have been dealing with the consequent effects of severe right hemiparesis, which is much better now, mild ataxic dysarthria and mild dysphagia. The two degrees I earned from Brooklyn College have helped me prepare for my current health challenge. At a time when speech therapists worked mostly as sound correctors (we were not trained to be SLPs until the late 1970s), having mentors such as Boyd Sheets, who specialized in aphasia, and Oliver Bloodstein, who specialized and my calculus TA couldn’t solve the problems in stuttering, inspired my future work and have that my professor assigned.

May 1, 2018/Brooklyn, NY—BAM announces the full lineup for the tenth annual BAMcinemaFest (Jun 20—Jul 1). Described as “filmgoers’ most exhilarating annual opportunity for discovery” (The Village Voice), BAMcinemaFest has evolved into a platform for both emerging and established filmmakers as well as unconventional and often overlooked films. This year’s 12-day festival presents all New York premieres and three world premieres. Gina Duncan, BAM’s Associate Vice President of Cinema explains "We are proud to present work that is compelling, defiant, and ultimately thrilling. It feels appropriate to celebrate the tenth BAMcinemaFest with a line-up of films and filmmakers whose energy and adventurousness hints at something profound taking root. I can't wait to see what it bears." Opening this year’s festival on Wednesday, June 20 is the head-spinningly surreal debut from musician-turned-filmmaker Boots Riley, Sorry to Bother You. Struggling to make ends meet in Oakland, CA, Cassius Green (Lakeith Stanfield) lands a job as a RegalView telemarketer.
