About The Event

The MLK Library is excited to host a special documentary film screening and live panel conversation moderated by executive producer Soledad O’Brien.

THE REBELLIOUS LIFE OF MRS. ROSA PARKS, based on the bestselling biography by Jeanne Theoharis and executive produced by award-winning journalist Soledad O’Brien, corrects the record on Rosa Parks’ often-overlooked accomplishments and the erasure of her radical politics. In short, what we are taught in school about Rosa Parks is a mere fraction of the full story about who she truly was.

Doors open at 1:00 p.m. and the screening will begin at 1:30 p.m. Click here to learn more.

This event is a part of the MLK Library’s 2024 MLK Week Celebration.
