Film Screening & Dialogue : At the River I Stand

AVIATE Alignment: INTERCULTURALISM

This event involves the viewing of the documentary film At the River I Stand followed by a meaningful dialogue moderated by Dr. Shannen Dee Williams, Associate Professor of History at the University of Dayton. At the River I Stand chronicles the pivotal Memphis sanitation workers' strike of 1968 and the soul-chilling assassination of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in the city on April 4 that year.
