SUMMARY:UREC Reel Talk: Jon Scott Bennett presents ep. 4 "A Long Ways From Home" of his docu-series "The Peekskill Riots"
DESCRIPTION:On September 4th\, 1949\, roughly 30\,000 people were attacked after attending a Paul Robeson concert. A similar concert was prevented from happening the previous week by a racist and anti-Semitic mob. These attacks had thrown the small upstate community into a national controversy\, prompting supporters of Robeson to organize a second concert to defend his right to perform and speak freely. \nWith the Governor promising an unprecedented level of police protection\, many felt secure in attending the concert\, assuming violence would not break out again. While the concert was peacefully conducted\, attendees would be ambushed upon leaving the concert grounds. Projectiles and hateful epithets alike were hurled at the exiting cars and buses. Hundreds of attendees left the grounds bloodied\, bruised\, and outright maimed. \nThis fourth episode of a 5-part docu-series focuses on the second of the two Peekskill Riots of 1949 when the worst riot in the region’s history would unfold before the eyes of the world. \nViewing and conversation will be possible through a zoom link and through participation from the comfort of the front parlor of The Stephen and Harriet Myers Residence. . \n  \nJOIN ZOOM MEETING \n\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/87580900723?pwd=PIh8MjXTzLf5mBbG9ISQ0daTMZfPKA.1\nMEETING ID:  875 8090 0723\nPASSCODE:  113256\nFind your local number: https://us02web.zoom.us/u/keDZ1WpUxw\n\n  \nABOUT JON SCOTT: \nDocumentarian Jon Scott Bennett has gained national recognition for his coverage of the Peekskill riots of 1949 and his previous films covering under-discussed history including The Pound Ridge Massacre and The Leatherman. Bennett bridges the gap between in-person and online audiences to share the important stories hidden in our backyard.
