“Standing tall in your truth (as Mamie Lang Kirkland did) and sharing your story is one of the most powerful acts of resistance. This film is a work of heart — inspiring us to confront the less than shinny parts of American History so that we can reimagine a brighter, more inclusive future.”
Sharon K. SobottaDirector of the Center for Women & Gender Equity at Saint Mary’s College of California
“This film tenderly explores the pain, humanity and courage of Mamie Lang Kirkland as she returns metaphorically and literally to a time and place of racial terror. Her courage rings as a clarion call to confront our histories of racial injustice.”
