SUMMARY:Evicted: An Exhibition of the National Building Museum
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n  \nIn 2018\, the National Building Museum opened an exhibition exploring the causes and impacts of eviction\, based on Matthew Desmond’s award‐winning book Evicted. Since then\, the exhibit has taught thousands about the national eviction crisis. A stable place to call home is one of the best predictors of success. Yet\, each year more than 2.3 million Americans\, mostly low‐income renters\, face eviction. In the context of the COVID‐19 pandemic\, the eviction crisis has further exploded. According to Mississippi Today\, nearly 50% of renters in the state face eviction this year. The traveling version of Evicted offers the opportunity to introduce audiences here to the eviction crisis so that they can learn how it affects their communities. Visitors will build empathy as they learn about housing instability through a local conversation about eviction that has national implications. The exhibition\, which runs June 28 to October 3\, 2021\,  presents sobering statistics and personal stories\, challenging adults and youth to face the enormity of a difficult subject\, while providing context and a call to action.

SUMMARY:Behind the Big House 2021 (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:These are filming dates\, this listing will be updated with presentation dates when available. \n  \nThe Behind the Big House program in Holly Springs\, Mississippi interprets the lives of enslaved persons through the structures in which they lived and worked. The program began in 2012 after Chelius Carter and Jenifer Eggleston\, antebellum historic property owners\, discovered that one of the structures on their property was a former slave dwelling. To them\, it was clear that the personal lives and experiences of those enslaved in Holly Springs was missing from the larger narratives of the city’s Annual Pilgrimage Tour of Historic Homes and Churches. Since 1938\, this tour has been an annual event allowing visitors to tour historic homes\, cemeteries\, churches\, and museums in Holly Springs. To help remedy the exclusion\, Carter and Eggleston\, along with other community persons\, started Behind the Big House. It is run through Preserve Marshall County and Holly Springs\, Inc.\, a local historic preservation institution.  The program’s major components are preservation\, interpretation\, and education.
