SUMMARY:In-Person Bellwood Memorial Feedback Session
DESCRIPTION:Join us in a feedback session to help uncover and preserve our collective history.  \nAt the National Center for Civil and Human Rights\, our Truth + Transformation Program works to unearth a more comprehensive and honest account of our history to heal our communities and transform society. One example of this work is our complicated history of forced labor after slavery was abolished. Atlanta was rebuilt after the Civil War – brick by brick – through a system of forced labor and convict leasing at Chattahoochee Brick Company and Bellwood Quarry. The Center is working with others to help tell that history and commemorate those not recognized for their contributions to this city. \nCommunity feedback sessions will help guide us on telling this story. \n\nThese are open to the public\, and we invite you to share with anyone you think might have a perspective we need to hear.  Registration is required\, attendance at every session is not. Lunch is provided and if needed\, we are offering a $100 honorarium for justice-impacted participants who need to take off work to attend. Reach out to us at truth@civilandhumanrights.org directly if that’s you. \n\nRegister now to be a part of this process and help us honor the past while working toward a better future.

SUMMARY:WABE Studios Special Screening - American Coup: Wilmington 1898
DESCRIPTION:Join WABE\, in partnership with The Atlanta History Center and the National Center for Civil and Human Rights\, for a special screening of American Coup: Wilmington 1898 before it airs on PBS. Guests will get to see an exclusive preview of the film and hear a panel discussion moderated by WABE’s Rose Scott with filmmaker Brad Lichtenstein\, Dr. Crystal Sanders\, Associate Professor of African American Studies at Emory University\, and DJ Sims\, Director of the Truth + Transformation Initiative at the National Center for Civil and Human Rights. \nAmerican Coup: Wilmington 1898 tells the little-known story of a deadly race massacre and carefully orchestrated insurrection in North Carolina’s largest city in 1898. Stoking fears of “Negro Rule\,” self-described white supremacists used intimidation and violence to destroy Black political and economic power and overthrow Wilmington’s democratically-elected\, multi-racial government. This massacre inspired much of the 1906 Atlanta race massacre.

SUMMARY:Forgotten Hero: Walter White and the NAACP - Film Preview & Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a preview of Forgotten Hero: Walter White and the NAACP\, a new documentary film from PBS’s American Experience\, premiering Tues.\, Feb 25\, at 9/8c on PBS stations nationwide.  \nThe screening will be followed by a panel discussion featuring the filmmakers and interviewees from the film.  \nAmerican Experience is proud to partner with The Auburn Avenue Research Library on African American Culture and History\, APEX Museum\, and The National Center for Civil and Human Rights to present this event.  \n  \nAbout the film:  \nWhile many consider the birth year of the civil rights movement to be 1955\, when Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on an Alabama bus\, the stage had been set decades before by activists of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. While some NAACP leaders\, such as W.E.B. Du Bois and Thurgood Marshall\, are widely renowned figures\, Walter White\, head of the Association from 1929 to 1955\, has been all but forgotten. With his blond hair and blue eyes\, Walter White looked white; he described himself as “an enigma\, a Black man occupying a white body.” Like virtually all light-skinned African Americans of his day\, White was descended from enslaved Black women and powerful white men. But he was Black — by law\, identity\, and conviction\, and spent his entire life fighting for Black civil rights. Forgotten Hero: Walter White and the NAACP traces the life of this neglected civil rights hero and seeks to explain his disappearance from our history.  \n  \nPanelists:  \nMichelle Smawley (director) is an award-winning director\, series developer\, and educator. She has worked with ABC\, CBS\, CNN\, HBO\, and many others\, most recently running a year-long series for a statewide initiative for WNET. She was also the founding executive producer for TRAX\, the first podcast network for preteens\, which earned a Peabody Award nomination in 2021. Smawley is an adjunct professor at NYU. She has also served on the faculty of the Missouri School of Journalism and the Graduate Program in Social Documentary at the School of Visual Arts.  \nRob Rapley (writer\, producer) is the founder of Apograph Productions and has written\, directed\, and produced many award-winning films for American Experience\, including most recently The Lie Detector and Voice of Freedom. Rob has received three Emmy nominations\, a Writer’s Guild Award\, a duPont-Columbia Award\, and many other honors. A classically trained musician\, Rob was also nominated for an Emmy as a sound mixer and has engineered Grammy-winning recordings with some of the great classical artists of our time.  \nThe conversation will be moderated by Cameo George\, executive producer of American Experience. George is an Emmy Award-winning producer\, writer\, and journalist with more than 25 years of experience in documentary\, broadcast television\, and digital content production. She has produced\, developed\, and commissioned innovative programming at CNN\, NBC News\, and ABC News. She was also the senior producer of CNN’s groundbreaking series Black in America and Latino in America and was executive producer of the eight-hour PBS documentary series 16 for ’16: The Contenders\, which was also broadcast on the BBC. George joined American Experience from ABC News\, where she was head of development for long-form projects and was responsible for creating a pipeline of docuseries and feature documentary films across Walt Disney Television platforms\, including ABC News\, Hulu\, National Geographic\, and Disney+. She was recently named to The Root’s list of 2024’s 100 Most Influential Black Americans.  \n—  \nMajor funding for American Experience provided by Liberty Mutual Insurance\, Carlisle Companies\, and by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. Funding for Forgotten Hero: Walter White and the NAACP provided by the National Endowment for the Humanities: Democracy demands wisdom. Additional funding for American Experience provided by the Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation\, The American Experience Trust\, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting\, and public television viewers.  \n

SUMMARY:Unveiling Truth: 1906 Commemorative Mural & Community Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the unveiling of a powerful new mural commemorating the 1906 Atlanta Race Massacre and honoring the resilience of a community that has endured and thrived.  \nThe 119th commemoration is more than remembrance—it is a call to truth-telling\, resilience\, and transformation. Created by renowned Atlanta-based artist Fabian Williams\, this mural stands as both art and resistance. Each brushstroke honors lives lost\, the strength of those who endured\, and the possibilities of a more just future.  \nSet in Historic South Atlanta\, once known as Brownsville\, the event invites neighbors\, families\, and community partners to reflect\, remember\, and celebrate a neighborhood that has long been a symbol of strength in the face of systemic injustice.  \nCome witness history\, connect with community\, and join Atlanta’s ongoing journey toward justice and healing.
