Program Description

Event Details

Join us for a screening of The Tale of the Lion, a locally produced documentary that celebrates the rich history held in the life stories of the oldest African American citizens in Frederick County, Maryland. The poignant telling of their experiences from childhood, through segregation, to today is a window to the personal challenges they met because of racial prejudice, the community bonds forged in the face of that adversity, and the strength and resilience that have shaped their lives, and our community. Run time: 77 minutes
