[Library Events and Programs] Created Equal: America's Civil Rights Struggle
Beginning Feb. 5, 2015 National Civil Rights Museum and Memphis Public Library will join forces to host Created Equal: America’s Civil Rights Struggle, a scholar-led film viewing and panel discussion program.
This is a special initiative of the National Endowment for the
Humanities in partnership with the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History. It aims to encourage
communities across the country to revisit the history of civil rights in the
U.S. and to reflect on the ideals of freedom and equality that have helped
bridge deep racial and cultural divides in American life through the viewing of four powerful documentary films.
