Coming Together Project Film Event on Saturday, November 21 at 2:30pm at the Jones Library

The Story We Tell is an eye-opening tale of how deep social inequalities came to be rationalized as natural – deflecting attention from the social practices and public policies that benefited whites at the expense of others.  This is the next event in a film and discussion series which began in the Fall of 2014 and continues to look at issues of race. 

A facilitated discussion will occur after the screening. We will look at how this story continues to affect us and our society today.  (This is Episode #2 in Race: The Power of an Illusion from PBS, California Newsreel.) 
Free and open to the public.  For more information, please contact Janet Ryan at 413/259-3223. This film series is co-sponsored by the Jones Library and The Coming Together Project.
