Morton Theatre: “UNSPOKEN” Film Screening, Panel Discussion

From the venue:

The Morton Theatre Corporation presents a free screening of the documentary UNSPOKEN: How Can a Town Make Peace with Its Past When the Truth is Buried, directed by Stephanie Calabrese. UNSPOKEN is a powerful and insightful documentary feature film that explores the impact of racial division in a small southern town, particularly in relation to the 1946 Moore’s Ford Lynching, which is considered the last mass lynching in America. Through the iPhone camera lens of resident Stephanie Calabrese, the film uncovers buried truths and sheds light on the secrecy that still surrounds this tragic event, as well as the ongoing impact of segregation, the Civil Rights Movement, and the integration of schools and society in Monroe, Georgia. Following the film, there will be a panel discussion with the filmmaker, people interviewed in the film and community leaders. Concessions will be available.
