Arroyo, Carmen, 1937-
Racist Depictions of Black and Latino People in Film - Description:
- Carmen Arroyo, speaking into a megaphone at a protest of the film "Fort Apache, The Bronx" in the Bronx, organized by the CAFA (Committee Against Fort Apache). Arroyo is approximately 47 years old. She is a Puerto Rican woman with light skin and short dark hair wearing a V-neck sweater and rectangular sunglasses. She's in profile, facing the left edge of the frame, and her megaphone has chipped paint on the bell. She seems to be standing in the middle of the street; beyond her, the sidewalk holds a long line of onlookers.
