The Loyola Project Screening
In 1963, at the height of the Civil Rights Movement, the Loyola Ramblers of Chicago broke racial barriers and changed college basketball forever. Now, nearly 60 years later, this legendary team is reexamined by Loyola basketball player and co-captain Lucas Williamson. Woven together with archival footage and modern day interviews, this captivating story continues to provide inspiration in the fight for equality.
Please join us at ABHM on January 10th at 5 PM CT for a special screening of The Loyal Project followed by a panel discussion and reception.
