Community Conversations on Race

The Road to Justice Film Screening

"This isn't Black history; it's is American history."
It's history for all of us!

The Road to Justice follows two groups on a Civil Rights tour through the American South as they reckon with the profound racial injustice of our recent past. The first, a group of predominantly Black middle school students from Chicago, and the second, a group of older Americans who lived through the 1960’s Civil Rights era. The film is a testament to the power of place and direct experience in creating transformational change.

It is also a call to action.

The 30-minute film is appropriate for grades seven and higher and can be used to facilitate the challenging conversations we all must have in order to move forward and build a better world.
