A panel discussion following the February 10th screening of the film "The Loving Story" will take place February 11th at UMBC with historian Claudrena Harold. Harold is an associate professor of history at the University of Virginia. She recently co-directed a short film titled “Sugarcoated Arsenic,” which explores African American social, political, and intellectual life at the University of Virginia during the 1970s.

The panel discussion takes place Tuesday, February 11 at 4:30 p.m. in the Gallery in Special Collections at Albin O. Kuhn Library. It is free and open to the public.

The screening and panel discussion are part of the Created Equal Project of the National Endowment for the Humanities public programming initiative. The program encourages public conversations about the changing meanings of freedom and equality in America.
