Sunday Screening of Rising Hope
Join us for a screening of Rising Hope Sunday, September 8, at 2 p.m. in the Craig H. Neilsen Auditorium at the Two Mississippi Museums. This 101-minute film introduces the Mississippi Delta through powerful narratives, exploring themes of generational poverty, historic oppression of Black Mississippians, post-NAFTA job losses, and the impact of underfunding public education. Rising Hope also highlights residents’ resilience and the roles of religion, nonprofits, and education in their fight for a better future.
