About this Event

This amazing documentary chronicles the life of the pioneering African American contralto and civil rights figure Marion Anderson. Using 34 private cassette tapes of her own voice, the film tells her story, covering her rise from Philadelphia, international stardom, and her defiance of racism—most notably the 1939 Lincoln Memorial concert.
