SUMMARY:Danville 1963: Legacy of a Movement
DESCRIPTION:The peaceful Civil Rights protest in Danville on June 10\, 
 1963\, was met with violence by the local police department\, becoming 
 known as Bloody Monday. It was the culmination of a summer of protests 
 against segregation in this small Virginia town and an event that would 
 shape Civil Rights history. Join us for a screening of The Movement\, a 
 75-minute documentary that tells the story of Bloody Monday through 
 first-hand accounts\, introduced by film producer Jonathan Parker. A panel 
 discussion with protest participants will follow the screening. \n \nThe 
 discussion will be moderated by Karice Luck-Brimmer\, a historical content 
 producer on the film and the Community Initiatives Program associate for 
 Virginia Humanities. Luck-Brimmer is a member of the National Afro-American 
 Historical & Genealogical Society and has extensive experience researching 
 Danville’s Civil Rights history. \n  \nAfter the screening and 
 discussion\, guests can interact with the panelists\, enjoy light 
 refreshments and explore a collection of records related to the 
 demonstration.\n\nThis event is presented by the Library of Virginia and 
 Virginia Humanities\, with funding generously provided by the Library of 
 Virginia Foundation and the Institute of Museum and Library Services 
 (IMLS).\n\nFor more information\, contact Vince Brooks at
