Clennon L. King, Civil Rights Veteran Mimi Jones who is featured in the

*
*Long before there was a Black Lives Matter Movement in places like
Cleveland, Ferguson and Baltimore, there were black activists in the
tourist town of St. Augustine, Florida.
*
*
*
*The award-winning documentary Passage at St. Augustine tells their
story, and establishes St. Augustine as the most violent Civil Rights
campaign of the entire Movement. Viewers enter a time machine and are
transported to the 'Nation's Oldest City' to hear first-hand from those
who fought the 18-month battle that led directly to the passage of the
landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964.
*
*
*
*With brief introductory remarks, documentary filmmaker Clennon L. King
segues into facilitating a larger conversation on race and history in
America, rounding out the program with a spirited question and answer
session with Civil Rights veteran Mimi Jones, featured in the film.
