In honor of the start of a new school year, join TOUR of Saint Luke’s Parish for a special screening of "The Great Debaters," a film directed by Denzel Washington. All are welcome to attend this Free Event - however registration is required:
The powerful film chronicles the journey of the Wiley College debate team, led by their passionate coach Melvin B. Tolson, as they confront racial injustice head-on. As we follow their story, the film not only showcases their intellectual prowess and unwavering courage but also explores the profound impact of their words. It invites us to consider the enduring power of debate as a tool for social change.
Following the screening, Dr. Rebecca J. Wilson will dive into how this team's historic pursuit of an equal platform still resonates with us today.
