About the event
Join us for the Mississippi Hills Grant Tour screening of Cole: Bridge to Justice, a feature-length documentary exploring the life and legacy of Dr. Donald Cole and the ongoing pursuit of racial justice, educational equity, and institutional change in Mississippi. This free community event includes a film screening and facilitated discussion designed to foster dialogue, preserve regional civil rights history, and connect audiences with stories rooted in the Mississippi Hills region. Through this tour, the project aims to expand public access to humanities-based storytelling, support educational engagement, and contribute to the archival preservation of firsthand civil rights narratives.
