On March 22, 6:30 PM Manchester-by-the-Sea Public Library will have a special zoom program with filmmaker Craig Dudnick discussing his film, Evanston’s Living History. This film is available to watch for free on the library Kanopy Service, if able, please watch prior to the filmmaker’s discussion of the Evanston’ events and history. It is the story of a community’s struggle for justice; with roots extending to the town of Abbeville, South Carolina and the horrific lynching of one of its prominent citizens, Anthony Crawford. Follow the lives of Crawford’s descendants and their allies as the fight for the passage of United States Senate Resolution 39, which apologized for the failure of the Senate to enact anti-lynching legislation. Learn about Evanston’s greatest generation, and their courageous fight to free Evanston from the bondage of racial discrimination.
