The Day That Shook Georgia

Patrick Longstreth

12:00 – 1:00 pm | Wednesday, February 12

Winner of the Ken Burns Prize, The Day That Shook Georgia is a short documentary about a 1971 explosion in southeast Georgia, one of the worst industrial tragedies in U.S. history. Negligence and racism, Vietnam and coverups—the film tells it all, followed by audience dialog with filmmaker Patrick Longstreth.
