SUMMARY:Journey To Justice
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with Memorial University\, The Rooms is hosting 
 a free community screening as part of its African History and Liberation M
 onth Celebration.\n\nJourney To Justice (Roger McTair | 2000 | 47 min)\n\
 nThis documentary pays tribute to a group of Canadians who took racism to 
 court. They are Canada's unsung heroes in the fight for Black civil rights
 . Focusing on the 1930s to the 1950s\, this film documents the struggle of
  6 people who refused to accept inequality. Featured here\, among others\,
  are Viola Desmond\, a woman who insisted on keeping her seat at the Rosel
 and movie theatre in New Glasgow\, Nova Scotia in 1946 rather than moving 
 to the section normally reserved for the city's Black population\, and Fre
 d Christie\, who took his case to the Supreme Court after being denied ser
 vice at a Montreal tavern in 1936. These brave pioneers helped secure just
 ice for all Canadians. Their stories deserve to be told.\n\nFor more info
