DESCRIPTION:March 30, Friday, 7 p.m. Movie Night -Freedom Riders, Threatened, attacked, 
 jailed...would YOU get on the bus?  Freedom Riders (2011) is the powerful 
 and inspiring story of six months in 1961 when more than 400 black and 
 white Americans risked their lives by deliberately violating Jim Crow 
 segregation laws.  They heroically went into segregated bus terminals and 
 used "whites-only" restrooms and lunch counters in Alabama, South Carolina 
 and other Southern states.\n\nThey stood up to savage beatings by the Ku 
 Klux Klan, often aided by the cops. In Alabama, Klansmen attacked and 
 firebombed a Greyhound bus, slashing the tires and holding the doors shut, 
 intending to burn the riders to death. When riders exited, they were beaten 
 with baseball bats, iron pipes and bicycle chains.\n\nDirected by 
 award-winning filmmaker Stanley Nelson featuring testimony from the Riders 
 themselves, government officials, and journalists who witnessed the Rides 
 firsthand.\n\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2018/03/25/18807857.php
