As part of SankofaSpirit’s Movies with a Mission, please join us for a free viewing of "Banished," a documentary investigating ethnic cleansing in post-reconstruction America. How did three U.S. towns make African Americans disappear? Filmmaker Marco Williams visits some of the whitest counties in the country to confront the legacy of “banishment” – a wave of racial purging that tore through the South 100 years ago. The wounds of history are opened as Williams sits down with KKK leaders, white residents of these all white communities, as well as descendants of the banished alike.
