Everyday Democracy was recently awarded a $3,674 Quick Grant from CT Humanities to present a free, virtual film screening and post-screening discussion of the new documentary, A Reckoning in Boston.

Filmmaker James Rutenbeck and participants in the film, Kafi Dixon and Carl Chandler, will be featured speakers. In addition, Everyday Democracy is using the film’s content to inform its revised public dialogue guide, Facing Racism in a Diverse Nation. Event attendees will be invited to participate in a pilot dialogue this summer.

You are invited to a special screening of the film on June 16, 2021, followed by a live Q & A.
