America at 250 Screenings: The NiaGara Movement

  • Cinemapolis 120 East Green Street Ithaca, NY, 14850 United States (map)

To celebrate America's 250th birthday, WSKG, Cinemapolis, and The History Center are partnering to bring you a series of history documentary screenings and community conversations.

The Niagara Movement: The Early Battle for Civil Rights explores Black intellectual society at the turn of the century, a class rarely presented. It examines the heated debate among Black elite on how to best uplift the race. It captures the conflict between Booker T. Washington and W. E. B. DuBois who found themselves on opposite sides of how to secure equality for their community.


This event is free and open to the public.
