The Informed Citizen Series presents "American Agitators", a Documentary Screening

The Coffee County Democratic Party presents a documentary screening of the film "American Agitators".


American Agitators tells the story of activist Fred Ross Sr., who helped invent modern organizing. He and his son, Fred Ross, Jr. left a legacy and a set of techniques that are still used today. By screening this documentary, we hope to inspire a new generation of organizers and activists in Coffee County, ready to protect the vulnerable and resist the rise of authoritarianism.

This will be a very special community mobilization event, with leaders from community organizations present to participate in a panel discussion with the audience. We will also discuss the importance of the Workers Over Billionaires Protest, happening the next day (Monday, September 1st). You won't want to miss it!

Please note that our previous Informed Citizen Series events were on Thursday evening, but they are now being moved to Sunday afternoons, to make them more accessible to workers, or older members, and those travelling to the event from outside of Coffee County.

We highly recommend that attendees bring folding chairs so that they will be comfortable during the film. Some light food, snacks, and beverages will also be provided. Feel free to bring things to eat!

This is a free event, but an optional donation of roughly $10 will greatly help us continue to host events like this in the future. Thank you.
