Exhibition on view at Telfair's Jepson Center for the Arts, through January 11, 2009

The Telfair presents its final major program celebrating the Freedom's March exhibition with a panel of local civil rights legends and a rare film about the Savannah movement. Presented in cooperation with the newly revived Savannah Chapter of the SCLC, this program includes a panel of Savannahians who played important roles during the civil rights era, and in particular, the Chatham County Crusade for Voters.

The program will also include a screening of the rare 1964 documentary film Right Now, which follows the efforts of the Chatham County Crusade for Voters. The 28-minute film by Robert Newman includes footage of civil rights legends "Big Lester" Hankerson, Hosea Williams, Benjamin Van Clark, Henry Brownlee, and others who appear in the Freedom's March exhibition. The film is shown through special arrangement with the Jack Rabin Collection on Alabama Civil Rights and Southern Activists, 1941- 2004, Historical Collections and Labor Archives, Special Collections Library, Pennsylvania State University. The program is free, project funding provided by the City of Savannah.
