Crossroads Stories offers the opportunity to spark conversations about race in small towns, and how we can continue to make all of our communities better, safer places for everyone to live.

"What is it like to be Black in predominantly white "small-town America"? Through a series of interviews, Crossroads Stories uncovers how six Columbus, IN natives feel navigating life as Black Americans in their hometown. Al Tucker, John Bundick, Celeste Nudi, Nia Omega, Ridge Harris, and Alfonso Wadholm each share anecdotes that are woven together to tell an overarching story. Through an emotional yet hopeful exposition, these Black community members highlight the racial disparities and routine indignities that exist in communities where being a person of color is considered deviating from the norm."

This film will be streamed from Kanopy and is 41 minutes long.
