We hope you will join us for the next dinner and film in the Schweitzer Room on Friday evening, October 25.

The film will be parts of the 2-hour PBS documentary Driving While Black, followed, as usual, by a discussion.

Driving While Black: Race, Space, and Mobility in America – a ground-breaking, two-hour documentary film by acclaimed historian Dr. Gretchen Sorin and Emmy-winning director Ric Burns – aired on PBS on October 13th, 2020. The film examines the history of African Americans on the road from the early 1900’s through the 1960’s and beyond, and includes commentary by MIT history professor Craig Steven Wilder.

Dinner is pot-luck, so please bring something to share. We gather at 6:15, and the film will begin at 6:30.

All are welcome; come learn together, as we work against the “deliberate erasure”*, of so much American history. Invite a friend!
