Court TV Celebrates the 40th Anniversary of the Voting Rights Act
Saturday, August 6, 2005 marks the 40th anniversary of the historic signing of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. To remember this important legislation and the struggle for African-Americans to gain the right to vote freely in this country, Court TV and its partners will hold a series of events to discuss its significance and solutions for engaging more youth in the political process. Additionally, the network will host screenings of a new original documentary titled Home of the Brave. The film will premiere on Monday, August 8 and it chronicles the life of Viola Liuzzo, the only white woman murdered during the civil rights movement and why we don’t know who she is. Told through the eyes of her children, the film follows the on-going struggle of an American family to survive the consequences of their mother’s heroism and the mystery behind her killing.
