Event
The Uncomfortable Truth Screening and Q&A with the Filmmaker
Tickets are still available at the door, friends!
In this film, Loki Mulholland, the son of famous Civil Rights Activist, Joan Trumpauer Mulholland, grapples with his familys deep roots in racism as he unearths his familys history and the truth behind their slave-owning past.
Together with Luvaghn Brown, a Freedom Rider, Loki explores, through his very personal history, the United States institutions of racism that continue to haunt our country today.
The Uncomfortable Truth is an unapologetic film that lays bare what we all need to understand about each other with an open and honest dialogue on race and society.
Join us for the film and the Q & A to follow. You may also choose to join us for a special luncheon with Loki before the screening.
This film is captioned for Deaf and Hard of Hearing viewers, and ASL interpretation will be available for the Q & A. If you are Deaf or Hard of Hearing and purchase luncheon tickets, an intepreter will be made available.
