In partnership with PBS North Carolina and Working Films, Holy Covenant United Church of Christ will host a screening of “American Coup: Wilmington 1898,” a film that shares the little-known story of a deadly race massacre and insurrection in North Carolina's largest city in 1898. After the 1:00-2:00 screening, local historian Tom Hanchett will guide us through the historical conditions that made the coup possible, and Justin Perry, a trauma-informed therapist, will facilitate discussion of the viewing experience.
