Film screening now begins at 7pm!

We are teaming up with our friends at the First Quincy St Community Garden and The Vulcan Society to honor the Black firefighters who lost their lives on the September 11 World Trade Center attacks with two films reflecting both their lives and struggles.

After a dedication ceremony to the new memorial at the entrance of the Garden, we will show:

ALL OUR SONS: FALLEN HEROES OF 9/11

directed by Lillian Benson

The twelve black firefighters who died during the September 11th attack at the World Trade Center are remembered.

Tensions arise when a previously all-white firehouse gets its first black fireman.
