The film director, Dr. Melvin Barnes, historian and Program Coordinator at Ohio Humanities will be on-hand to dialogue about working with a group local mothers to tell their story of fighting for integration and social change during the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s as well as for future generations up through the present.
