Film Screening: Cracker Crazy: Invisible Histories of the Sunshine State January 4, 2008

1/4 Cracker Crazy: Invisible Histories of the Sunshine State

Location: 600 4th St, West Sacramento. That's the corner of 4th & F in West Sacramento (just over the river from downtown near the Pyramid Building).

Renegade filmmaker Georg Koszulinski takes on Florida's history from a decidedly different point of view. Blending archival and original footage, he brings to life a cast of historical characters spanning over 12,000 years, from Florida's ancient Indians to the migrant farm workers of the 21st century. Meet Osceola and the Seminoles, who fought alongside escaped slaves in the most costly Indian War in American History. Unmask Florida's Ku Klux Klan and don't forget about Walt Disney and Henry Flagler - perhaps the two characters most responsible for the Florida we know today. "Think you know Florida? Think again. See 'Cracker Crazy' for an eye-opening experience."

Admission: $5.00.

Digital projection on to a large screen. Seating is mostly on folding chairs. Feel free to bring a pillow or cushion.
