Join BLSA and the Charles B. Sears Law Library as we host our first movie screening of the semester!
We will be showing Mississippi Burning on Friday, October 5th at 5:30pm.
Mississippi Burning is a 1988 American crime thriller film directed by Alan Parker. The script by Chris Gerolmo is loosely based on the 1964 Chaney, Goodman, and Schwerner murder investigation in Mississippi. The film stars Gene Hackman and Willem Dafoe as two FBI agents assigned to investigate the disappearance of three civil rights workers in fictional Jessup County, Mississippi. The investigation is met with hostility and backlash by the town's residents, local police, and the Ku Klux Klan (KKK).
After the movie, we will enter into a informal discussion!
There will be pizza and wings! (Sponsored by the Charles B. Sears Law Library)
