Description

A very White college fraternity known to fly the Confederate flag moves into a historically Black neighborhood and establishes their presence by staging an antebellum style parade. What happens next might surprise you. In the aftermath of Ferguson everyone’s talking about race, but can we speak about it openly and honestly? Or even change? What starts as a neighborhood struggle over cultural legacies in the South winds up becoming a window into the underlying dynamics of race relations in many American communities. -CM
