SUMMARY:“Ain’t No Back to a Merry-Go-Round” Screening & Talk-Back with Ilana Trachtman
DESCRIPTION:Five Howard students broke barriers in the summer of 1960 by riding the whites-only carousel at Glen Echo Amusement Park. Their protest sparked an unprecedented alliance with the local white community\, drawing national attention\, union support\, and eventually producing ten 1961 Freedom Riders\, including Stokely Carmichael\, and a Supreme Court case. \n“Ain’t No Back to a Merry-Go-Round\,” directed by Emmy winner Ilana Trachtman\, brings this untold story to life with never-before-seen footage and voices by Jeffrey Wright\, Mandy Patinkin\, Bob Balaban\, Lee Grant\, Peter Gallagher\, Dominique Thorne\, Alysia Reiner and Tracie Thoms. \nStay afterward for a discussion with director Ilana Trachtman.
