OBAMA: IN PURSUIT OF A MORE PERFECT UNION; this three-part documentary series is now being presented as a FREE online screening by ArtsEd4All.

SYNOPSIS:

HBO’s three-part documentary chronicles the personal and political journey of President Barack Obama, as the country grapples with its racial history. Weaving together conversations with colleagues, friends and critics, and interspersed with his own speeches and news interviews, the series begins with Obama’s childhood and takes us through his perspective as the son of a white mother from Kansas and an African father, his spiritual formation by a generation of Black leaders, and his hopes for a more inclusive America. Through the story of one man irrevocably bound to the history of a country, OBAMA: IN PURSUIT OF A MORE PERFECT UNION reflects on the country’s past and present national identity.

The OBAMA series will be available to registered viewers via View on Demand.

In 2015, President Barack Obama issued a proclamation commemorating the federal holiday marking Dr. King’s birthday, encouraging all Americans to honor his legacy through their own service.

“We have more to do to bring Dr. King’s dream within reach of all our daughters and sons. We must stand together for good jobs, fair wages, safe neighborhoods, and quality education. With one voice, we must ensure the scales of justice work equally for all — considering not only how justice is applied, but also how it is perceived and experienced. As Dr. King told us, “injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere,” and this remains our great unfinished business.”
