Courage to Be Series: Model of Courage

with Adolph L. Reed Jr
Online Event  6:00 pm – 8:00 pm EST/GMT-5
The 1963 Italian film, "The Organizer," is a superb illustration of courage as the outcome of a collective project. Set in a textile suburb of Turin, the film follows a group of workers who experience grievances with factory management. Initially, one worker steps forward to convey those grievances to the bosses and is unceremoniously fired for his courageous effort. Only when the workers determine that their effectiveness lies not in a single individual, but in their collective action are they able to overcome their hesitance and act courageously together.
