Alabama Film Week: Shuttlesworth (2022) w/ Q+A sponsored by Trunk Tea

Dir. Jay Whiston

Rev. Fred Shuttlesworth was raised in the crucible of segregated Birmingham but he was forged by its attempt to kill him. When the KKK planted a bomb underneath his bed and he emerged unharmed, he was sure he was saved by God to lead a Movement. His work not only ended legal segregation but led directly to the Civil and Voting Rights Acts - and inspired freedom movements around the world.

Filmmakers J. Whitson and T. Marie King are scheduled to be in attendance. A Q&A will follow the screening.

Filming locations: Birmingham, AL
