I have been asked to help promote this upcoming event:
From Style listing:
The Defenders of Freedom and Justice and Equality show the award-winning, 40-minute documentary, “Meet Me in the Bottom: the Struggle to Reclaim Richmond’s African Burial Ground,” on Wednesday, July 16, at William Byrd Community House. Directed by Shawn Utsey, the film chronicles the contentious fight between community activists, VCU and Gov. Bob McDonnell for control of the land. (He signed a bill to transfer the property from VCU to the city of Richmond in 2011.) The screening begins at 6:30 p.m. and is followed by discussion. Free, with donations accepted.
Tonight at William Byrd Community House.
