July 2010

In 1963, Gordon Quinn (founder of Kartemquin Films) was recruited by SNCC to film a public demonstration against crowding and segregation in Chicago Public Schools. On October 22, thousands of parents, students, teachers, and community members marched together to protest the policies of Superintendant Benjamin Willis. This footage can be seen for the first time in over 45 years in a new exhibit called Facing Freedom, which premiered July 4th, 2010 at the Chicago History Museum.
