Producer and Director Rollin Binzer
brings us the story of Paul J. Adams III
founder of the trailblazing Providence St.
Mel school on Chicago’s West side. In the 30
years since he raised enough money to
purchase the school, he’s taken it from a
failing inner city school to one that graduates
100% of it’s students with nearly half of them
going to Ivy League or top tier schools. This
documentary tells the story of his method,
the students and parents lives he’s changed
and what happens when you teach children
to expect greatness from themselves. Please
join us on Thursday March 18th for a free
screening of this incredible film.
St. Clair Bourne’s 3rd Thursday
Documentary Film Screening Series
was created to continue the mission of the
late founder of the Black Association of
Documentary Filmmakers West, St. Clair
Bourne. This event is a monthly gathering for artists actively working in film,
television and theater to stimulate discussion on culture, political principles,
creative techniques and the exchange of ideas that can help us all make the most
powerful work possible to help create a culture of resistance in these important
times.
