A Murder in Broad Daylight
A filmmaker has chronicled the Greensboro Massacre, its aftermath and the social implications of the US' first Truth and Reconciliation Commission process, in Greensboro: Closer to the Truth. Active Voice, a group that uses film, television and multimedia to spark social change, has asked Community Science to conduct a formative evaluation of its efforts, and its partners' efforts, to foster local reconciliation and justice through the film project. Community Science is slated to conduct surveys of film viewers and conduct key informant interviews with local partners in three U.S. cities.
Using the documentary as an icebreaker, Active Voice's project works with grassroots organizations across America to encourage dialogue and community healing. To learn more about the project, email us at Community Science.

in a way that benefits all communities. We answer evaluation and research
