JACKSON — The Jackson Public Library and Jackson Community Church will be co-sponsoring the timely online screening of "Traces of the Trade: A Story From The Deep North," followed by a discussion facilitated by co-hosts Dain Perry and his wife Constance Perry, at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept 15, and Friday, Sept 18.
Facilitator Dain Perry is one of nine cousins featured in this documentary that unearths a hidden legacy of slavery in America. Traces of the Trade: A Story From The Deep North, first shown at the Sundance Film Festival, follows the journey by filmmaker Katrina Browne and nine of her cousins — including Dain Perry — into the dark past of the slave trade, which enriched their white New England family. Allow three hours to watch the film and share in the conversation.
