The arrival of Amiri Baraka to San Francisco State College as a guest lecturer in 1967 led to the participation of the Black Student Union in the Community Communication Project and Glover's exposure to stage acting at 21. He also discusses his production company, Louverture Films; inspired in name by Haitian liberator Toussaint L'Ouverture. Glover speaks about his role in the TransAfrica Forum in Washington, D.C. and the efforts to pursue intersectionality in policies concerning Africa and African-descendant groups by founder Randall Robinson.
