DESCRIPTION:"The Central Park 5" Film showing & Discussion \nShowing & 
 Discussion\nTuesday, July 19, 7pm\n\nThe film documents the story of five 
 Black and Latino young teenagers from Harlem who were wrongly arrested and 
 then convicted of beating and raping a white woman jogger in New York 
 City’s Central Park in 1989. They were coerced by the NY Police 
 Department into confessing to the brutal crime.  They were viciously 
 attacked in the media nationwide as a “wolf pack.” \n\nDonald Trump 
 took out a signed full page ad calling for their execution. “Bring Back 
 The Death Penalty. Bring Back The Police!” said the ad, and above his 
 signature, Trump wrote: “I want to hate these muggers and murderers. They 
 should be forced to suffer and, when they kill, they should be executed for 
 their crimes. They must serve as examples so that others will think long 
 and hard before committing a crime or an act of violence.” This ad 
 campaign was an important part of creating an atmosphere that justified 
 mass incarceration and the death penalty. \n\nThe youth did 6-13 years in 
 prison for a crime they did not commit, before they were exonerated.  This 
 documentary is a must-see in the face of today's police terror.  Sarah 
 Burns, her father, Ken Burns and her husband, David McMahon's film 
 chronicles one major instance of racist injustice in the long and ugly 
 history of this country. \n
