SUMMARY:Film Screening- Repairing the World: Stories from the Tree of Life
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the National Center for Civil and Human Rights on Saturday\, December 12 at 2PM for a screening of ”Repairing the World: Stories from the Tree of Life”. Not In Our Town’s ”Repairing the World: Stories from the Tree of Life” documents Pittsburgh’s powerful community response to hate in the aftermath of the deadliest antisemitic attack in U.S. history. Through the voices of survivors\, family members\, diverse Pittsburgh residents and leaders\, the film shows unity in a moment of crisis\, the resilience of a vibrant city\, and a community working together to understand what it means to be “stronger than hate.” Their acts of solidarity against antisemitism\, racism\, and all forms of hate take on a new resonance today. As hate violence rises across the country\, “Repairing the World” demonstrates that our compassion for one another is our strength. Click here for more information.

SUMMARY:More Than A Dream
DESCRIPTION:Throughout history\, the role of women heroes has been downplayed in the public narrative. Michael Long and Yohuru Williams challenge that narrative by putting women at the forefront with their book “More than a Dream.” Their book\, written for middle school-aged children\, tells an alternate history of the March on Washington that focuses on the stories of women who were instrumental to the movement. On October 29\, Long and Williams are coming to The Center to discuss the book and have a Q&A session for children. Before and after\, The Center will facilitate activities that complement the event.
