'Alice’s Ordinary People,' featured on the NPR program “The Story with Dick Gordon,” is a documentary about Alice Tregay, an unsung heroine of the Civil Rights Movement. Her remarkable story spans the historic period from marches with Martin Luther King, Jr. to the election of Barack Obama. Her many contributions to the struggle through grassroots activism is the thread which connects the two.
Meet Craig Dudnick and learn why and how he came to make the film, and the circumstances in Chicago which drew Alice to the Civil Rights Movement. A discussion will follow the screening. Free and open to the public.
