Description
On Thursday, February 25 from 7:00-8:30pm, the Sawyer Free Library will be hosting a Zoom presentation of WGBH's powerful documentary series "American Stories: Race Amity and The Other Tradition." This presentation will include a brief introduction to the film by Dr. William H. Smith (creator, executive producer, and writer of the series), a reading from the book "Race Amity: A Primer on America's Other Tradition," a viewing of the film "Race Amity: America's Other Tradition," a commentary by Dr. Smith, and a Q&A Session.
