SUMMARY:Reel Truth: Portrait of Ailey Presented by Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater
DESCRIPTION:The National Center for Civil and Human Rights invites you to a special screening of Portrait of Ailey\, a powerful documentary that examines the life\, legacy\, and contradictions of one of America’s most transformative cultural figures\, Alvin Ailey. \nThrough rare archival footage\, intimate interviews\, and the enduring language of movement\, Portrait of Ailey explores how Ailey’s work emerged from the lived realities of Black life in America. Shaped by faith\, trauma\, beauty\, discipline\, and survival\, the film asks what it meant for a Black artist from the Jim Crow South to build an institution that would carry Black stories onto the world’s most prestigious stages. \nFollowing the screening\, join us for a live conversation and audience Q&A featuring Alicia Graf Mack\, Artistic Director of Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater and former Ailey star dancer\, alongside two distinguished Atlanta-based scholars and cultural leaders: Karcheik Sims-Alvarado\, author of Atlanta and the Civil Rights Movement\, 1944–1968 and Georgia and the Power of the Vote\, and Assistant Professor of Africana Studies and Director of Public History and Historic Preservation at Morehouse College; and Dwight Andrews\, Professor of Music Theory and African American Music at Emory University and pastor of First Congregational Church in Atlanta. \nTogether\, the panel will engage Portrait of Ailey not simply as art\, but as testimony—exploring the intersections of dance\, music\, faith\, history\, and Black cultural memory. \nThis one-night-only screening and conversation takes place on Wednesday\, January 21\, 2026\, from 6:30–8:30 PM\, with doors opening at 6:00 PM\, in the Shirley Clarke Franklin Pavilion at the Center. \nAdmission is $12 for not-yet-members and $6 for members. \nThis event is presented in advance of Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater’s separate performances at the Fox Theatre\, taking place February 11–15\, 2026.

SUMMARY:Cup of Truth: Courts of Justice with Author Pete Babcock
DESCRIPTION:The National Center for Civil and Human Rights invites guests to participate in a timely conversation on leadership\, justice\, and the responsibilities that accompany visibility.  \nFollowing decades of experience as an NBA executive with the Atlanta Hawks\, San Diego Clippers\, and Denver Nuggets\, author Pete Babcock offers a behind-the-scenes perspective on how athletes\, institutions\, and movements intersect. His story extends beyond the game\, exploring relationships with civil rights leaders such as John Lewis and his work helping players leverage their influence to drive meaningful change in their communities. Courts of Justice challenges the comfortable assumption that professional sports exist apart from society.  \nJoin us for an engaging evening of dialogue\, reflection\, and insight\, one that asks not only what justice looks like\, but who has the power to shape it. A discussion\, audience Q&A\, and a book signing with Pete Babcock will follow the talk.  \nThe Center is located at 100 Ivan Allen Jr. Blvd.\, between the Georgia Aquarium and World of Coca-Cola.  \nDoors open at 6pm. Located in the Shirley Clarke Franklin Pavilion at the Center.

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.
