Created Equal Film Screening: "The Loving Story"

Liz O'Grady, Neighbor

Our second civil rights film discussion will take place at the
Torrington Historical Society. Led by Tom Hogan, former lawyer and legal
history professor at UConn, we will take a look at a groundbreaking
case that dealt with the legality of interracial marriages. The
documentary brings to life the Lovings' marriage and the legal battle
that followed through little-known filmed interviews and photographs
shot for Life magazine. Participants will view film clips from the HBO
documentary as well as supplemental materials provided by Mr. Hogan.
