IMPACT Arts + Film Fund held a private screening of "On the Shoulders of Giants" at E Street Cinema, followed by a private dinner at Lincoln where we caught up with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.). Jabbar talks about his early days with The Harlem Renaissance Big Five, his oft contentious relationship with the press and receiving the Lincoln Award.
