Film and Q&A: February One: The Story of the Greensboro Four

Saturday, Feb. 20

3-4:30 p.m.

This award-winning documentary chronicles the historic day — February 1, 1960 —

when four black freshmen from the Agricultural and Technical College of North Carolina (now North Carolina A&T State University) sat down at a whites-only lunch counter in downtown Greensboro. Their actions served as a blueprint for other nonviolent civil rights protests across the South and the nation. A Q&A with the film’s producers and some of the people involved in

the protests will follow the screening.

For more details, call 807-7900 or access ncmuseumofhistory.org or Facebook. The

museum is located at 5 E. Edenton St., across from the State Capitol. This program is free

and open to the public.
