WE SHALL NOT BE MOVED - YOKES AND CHAINS
Seattle, WA
WE SHALL NOT BE MOVED: This documentary film tells the story of a New Deal Resettlement Community in Tillery, North Carolina from slavery to present. Through archival film and video footage, historical photographs, and narratives of Tillerys elders, shows how seeds of independence planted in the pre-Civil Rights era took root in movements for racial justice in the 1950s, and grew into fights against present day environmental racism and economic marginalization.
YOKES AND CHAINS: In a living act of apology, a White man and his son wear the yokes and chains used in the Atlantic slave trade as they cross the USA, England, and Australia, trying to acknowledge the effects of the legacy of slavery and encourage an open dialogue between Blacks and Whites.
