Join us for a critical screening of a youth-produced documentary around voting rights, followed by engaging community dialogue.
This special edition of Docs & Dialogue we’ll be watching the 2008 documentary Journey’s Through the Red, White and Blue with the youth producers who made the film. This documentary explores the legacy of African American voting rights, immigrant participation, and the importance of “the youth vote.” As the November elections are fast approaching we urge everyone to register to vote.
