Free Screening of The Six Triple Eight”

January 20 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm

Free

This  free, student-targeted screening of “The Six Triple Eight” is in observance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.

The 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion contributed to the war effort in a unique way: by sorting through a three-year backlog of mail (17 million pieces of it!) that hadn’t been delivered to American soldiers far from home. In the face of discrimination and a vast, unfamiliar country divided by global conflict, these 855 women brought hope to the front lines.

 

Doors will open at 10:30 a.m. Seating is first-come, first-serve.
