Join us on Thursday, May 18, 2017 at 7 pm in the Woodbury
Room for the next in this ongoing film and discussion series that may educate,
touch your heart, and inspire you to action to help dismantle racism.
This month showing is an excellent three-part series from
Brave New Films that explores the many ways black Americans face racial bias.
These short, but powerful films – Racism is Real; Black Protests vs. White
Riots; and Prison System by the Numbers – explore the effects of racial bias on
the lives of black Americans and the ways in which racism impacts American
society as a whole. The film will be followed by a brief discussion and then an
opportunity to continue work on some local anti-racism action projects.
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
Coming Together. More information
