- **Event Description**: Join us for a free event featuring a screening of "Caravan of Hope" at 2 p.m. on Sunday, June 21, in the Craig H. Neilsen Auditorium at the Two Mississippi Museums. This 60-minute documentary tells the powerful story of how a Memphis-based radio station, WDIA, and a small Mississippi town, Mound Bayou, joined forces to save a symbol of Black resilience. Mound Bayou, one of the most successful all-Black towns in America, was on the brink of collapse by the mid-twentieth century. Archival footage, photographs, and interviews show how WDIA, the first Black-programmed radio station in the United States, raised the funds to revive the town. Following the screening, a panel conversation will feature directors Castel Sweet and Antonio Tarrell, with moderator Nina Parikh of Film Mississippi. 

This event is in partnership with the Mississippi Humanities Council, Film Mississippi, and the Mississippi Film Society. For more information, call 601-576-6850 or email info@mdah.ms.gov.
