SUMMARY:Underground History Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:Underground History explores the diverse histories of Tampa Bay and St. Petersburg\, from the archeological remnants of ancient Indigenous villages to settlements of freedom seeking people\, Cuban fishing ranchos\, displaced African American communities and erased cemeteries. Each story reveals a layer of history and how they are connected by colonization. “Underground History” poses the question\, if a community fully acknowledge its past\, can it develop a deeper sense of place and a more equitable future?\nPrior to the event\, there will be an Exploring Local Heritage Fair with cultural\, social\, and historical community resource information tables.\nThis event will premiere a new\, expanded version of ‘Underground History\,” a documentary which explores the connections between St. Petersburg and Tampa Bay’s diverse cultural history and emerging community efforts to acknowledge that past. The community conversation will provide an opportunity for discussion with the filmmakers and project advisors\, as well as an exploration of ideas for on-going engagement in community efforts around St. Petersburg’s history\, archeology\, cultural heritage and social justice.\nFree and open to the public\nLocation: Miller Auditorium\, Eckerd College campus\nModerator: Beverly Warren\, Ph.D.\, Vice President for Inclusive Excellence at Eckerd College\nPresenters:*John W.
