About this Event

Lexington: Resilience in the Redline is a powerful documentary that examines how historic redlining and systemic housing discrimination shaped Lexington’s neighborhoods—and how Black residents have continued to build, organize, and thrive despite those barriers. Through personal stories, local data, and historical context, the film connects past policies to present-day inequities while highlighting community resilience and pathways toward housing justice and equity.
