Education nonprofit Facing History and Ourselves has partnered with the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art to present the upstanders film series in January 2017.
Every Wednesday night at 7 p.m., the museum will screen a film that celebrates stories of individuals that have embraced the challenge to speak out, stand up for others, and make decisions that help create positive change in our world.
Following each free screening, Facing History and Ourselves will facilitate a discussion with the audience about how the stories can speak to present day challenges.
