DESCRIPTION:Film: Anne Braden: Southern Patriot (1924-2006) (77 min.) 2012 \nBy Anne 
 Lewis & Mimi Pickering\n “Anne Braden: Southern Patriot (1924-2006)” is 
 a first person feature documentary completed May 1, 2012. Braden rejected 
 her segregationist, privileged past to become one of the civil rights 
 movement’s staunchest white allies. In 1954 she was charged with sedition 
 by McCarthy-style politicians who played on fears of communism to preserve 
 southern segregation. In 1963 she became one of only five white southerners 
 whose contributions to the movement were commended by Rev. Martin Luther 
 King, Jr. in his famed “Letter from Birmingham Jail.” A relentless 
 labor and political organizer, she fought for transformation and liberation 
 throughout her life.\n The film was directed and produced by Anne Lewis and 
 Mimi Pickering.  Anne Lewis will lead discussion after the film.  For info:
