features a radically charged criminal trial and a heart-rending love story about a couple set during the Civil Rights era. Richard and Mildred Loving were an interracial couple who fell in love and married at a critical time in American history, and because of the social and political turmoil, their story brought a societal change. This film will be shown on Thursday, Feb. 7 at 7 p.m. at the Treaty Site History Center. It is free and no registration is required.
