Receive and Discuss Shoreview Human Rights Idea Proposal <br />Ms. Collins read the email received from the Chair of the Shoreview Human Rights <br />Commission: <br />"At our most recent HRC meeting I proposed having a public screening of the <br />documentary "America's Civil Rights Movement - A Time for Justice" but my idea was <br />quickly rejected. The iilm is narrated by Julian Bond, so this is why I thought it would be <br />an ideal opportuni�y to show it. Like the "Selma" documentary it is available for free for <br />the Southern Poverty Loss Center. You just need a proposal of how you want use it <br />attached to the original proposal (which was attached to the email) for the event in <br />August. If you wish to show it at the Roseville Library, Judy Woodward is the History <br />Coordinator. She said they do not normally do anything for the MLK (Martin Luther <br />King) holiday because they focus on Black History Month in February but she is always <br />open to new ideas. I like that the Library can effectively market events and get the word <br />out to a wide audience. On a negative note the was a negative comment about Dunn <br />Brothers being too expensive." <br />Commissioner Christiansen stated she would support this proposal. <br />Chair Groff stated it would involve planning but they do have the template for the event that had <br />been held in August. He stated he had not seen the film but the Chair of the Shoreview HRC had <br />stated it was good. They would also need to coordinate with the Library for the space. <br />Youth Commissioner Cederberg stated he would contact Judy Woodward at the Library to see if <br />there are available dates and if they would promote the event. <br />Ms. Collins suggested the Commission consider having a speaker available for a question and <br />answer session after the showing. <br />Commissioner Christiansen stated Ms. Woodward might know historians that would be <br />interested in facilitating this. <br />c.
