SUMMARY:Roots to Rockets - Documentary Screening
DESCRIPTION:The 100 Men Hall will screen Roots to Rockets\, a documentary that honors the communities displaced during the creation of the Stennis Space Center\, on Friday\, May 8th. The event is free but please RSVP as seating is limited. There will be food for purchase by Big Bertha and a cash/credit bar.The documentary is a tribute to the residents of Gainesville\, Napoleon\, Santa Rosa\, Logtown\, Westonia\, Bayou Lacroix and Pearlington - communities that were displaced and relocated in the early 1960s. During that period\, the U.S. government acquired 125\,000 acres of land where these communities stood to build NASA's main rocket testing facility. Brehm Bell\, who grew up in Pearlington\, has long been moved by the stories of these displaced families and is dedicated to preserving their remarkable experiences. Bell worked with local videographer Matt Barrett to capture the oral histories of some of the residents and their memories of the communities\, including the sacrifices made to ensure the success of the nation's space program. Food for purchase by Big Bertha's Kitchen and Catering. Her specialty is soul food\, which is why flavor is her main ingredient. Bertha does a pop up outside the Hall on Fridays serving up the best catfish in this region as well as other plate lunches\, in addition Bertha's catering services Coast Episcopal School as well as other private and public catering.Free to attend\, but please reserve your spot here.
