Film & Discussion Series: Race the Power of an Illusion - The Story We Tell - Saturday, November 21 at 2:30 pm

[Janet Ryan]

Join us for the next film in this ongoing series that explores issues of race on Saturday, November 21 at 2:30 pm in the Woodbury Room.  This documentary, 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.  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.)

A facilitated discussion will follow the screening.

Free & open to the public.

Co-sponsored by the Jones Library & the Coming Together Project.
