Free Screening of "Rustin"

  • 325 E Main Street Norman, OK, 73069 United States (map)

Join your hosts Desiree Abba and Norman Pride for a free screening of George C. Wolfe's 2023 biopic "Rustin".

"Rustin" is the story of Bayard Rustin, the civil and gay rights activist who organized and coordinated the 1963 Freedom March on Washington.

Due to fear of persecution related to his homosexuality, Rustin mostly worked behind the scenes, and as a result his role in the civil rights movement is often overlooked. But as this movie shows, his contributions to the cause were central to the movement's success.

The screening is free. There will be light snacks and refreshments available.
