Description

The San Francisco Public Library, in association with Independent Television Service and KQED present the film “Banished” by Marco Williams. From the 1860s to the 1920s, dozens of towns and counties across America violently expelled entire African American communities, forcing thousands of black families to flee their homes. A century later, these towns remain all white. “Banished” tells the story of three of these counties and their black descendants, who return to learn shocking histories. A panel discussion follows the film.
