Honoring Courage, Fostering Alliance: A Community Initiative. 

Before there was the March on Washington, there was Glen Echo - the first organized interracial civil rights protest in U.S. history. When 5 Howard University students sat on a segregated Maryland carousel in 1960, the arrests made headlines. But as the white community near Glen Echo Amusement Park joined the Black students in picketing, an extraordinary history-making partnership was born. This is the untold story of the Jews they marched with, Nazis they provoked, Congressmen they inspired, and Civil Rights leaders they became. Documentary, 2024, 1h 29m, NR.
