Victor Omojola

Bio

Victor earned a B.A. from Columbia University with a major in Film and Media Studies and a minor in Political Science. He has conducted research on the relationship between the political messaging of post-1960 Cuban films and their use of Afro-Cuban music, religion, and language. In graduate school, Victor is excited to further explore militant Latin American film movements’ representation of the Black diaspora, aesthetics of early West African cinema, and video-making as a form of inquiry.
