About this event
Join us to mark Martin Luther King, Jr., Day 2021 with a discussion of “Civil Rights: A History,” a 4-part documentary that looks at the four stages of racism highlighted by Bryan Stevenson: slavery, lynching, segregation, and mass incarceration. The documentary tries to show how these stages underlie the racial problems that persist in our country to the present day.
The documentary episodes are being broadcast on Chelmsford TV on a rotating schedule, but they are all available at any time on YouTube. Please visit https://jesseheines.com/civilrights, where you can find links to the YouTube videos, additional information on the program, a list of references, and brief bio sketches on the series’ creators.
To get the most out of the discussion, viewing prior to the discussion is strongly recommended. In addition, please submit questions and comments to be answered and discussed during the program to [email protected].
