Hello ALL,
We will be screening "The Mill Creek: Past, Present & Future
Documentary" tonight on our website at 8PM Followed by an online chat discussion. We also want to honor the late Frances Aulston (Founder and CEO of the Paul Robeson House and the West Philadelphia Cultural Alliance) who we had the great opportunity of interviewing during this documentary in 2013. Her legacy will live on! This screening is also part of the WorldWide Viewing Campaign.
