THE LIGHT OF TRUTH: RICHARD HUNT'S MONUMENT TO IDA B. WELLS, 70min., USA
Directed by Rana Segal
This feature documentary weaves together sculptor Richard Hunt’s process and life story, with that of civil rights crusader, suffragist and antilynching activist, Ida B. Wells. Hunt creates the Light of Truth monument for the Bronzeville community at the former site of the Ida B. Wells Homes. Wells’ history and the sculptor’s history intersect in their mutual reaction and actions as they confront the injustices of racism with their work.
