The Power of Truths: Cinematic Chronicles of Racism and Resistance

By Self-Evident Education Nov 30, 2023

Join us at the Nashville Public Library for a screening of two powerful short documentary films, followed by a panel discussion. You won't want to miss these incredible stories that will touch your heart and reflect on the history of race in America.

The program will include two films: If You Cross This Boundary, We All Die, about Ellen and William Craft's journey of self-emancipation from Georgia to Boston and beyond; and A Mother's Bond, the story of Catherine Linda, an enslaved woman who accompanied her master on a trip to Northampton and was told she could be free in Massachusetts.
