‘Great Migration’ films highlight transformative power of African-American communities

“Yes, individuals make up communities, and individuals may lead organizations, but it’s really rooted in communities,” said Massiah. “In some ways, institutions are official ways of recognizing communities.”

 

A selection of four films exploring the transformative power of African American communities in Philadelphia will be touring in different libraries and recreations throughout the city, and will be exhibited in a major exhibition about the Great Migration at the African American Museum in Philadelphia.
