Facing the Shadow written by Sheila Payton directed by Jeannine Foster Mckevia

In 1859 (two years before the outbreak of the Civil War) in Baltimore MD.... Alice Adams is hosting the monthly Free Women of Color Literary Society meeting in her home.  The Society is a bubble of culture, refinement and safety that provides the women refuge from the realities of the larger world.  Changes in laws and attitudes toward free people of color encroach on the the few rights the women and their families have as the country moves closer to civil war.  The tension between the women's desire to remain in their bubble and the realities they face in the larger world reaches its peak when they are forced to make a decision that could change their lives and their families lives forever; whether to help a slave and her young daughter escape to freedom.
