The Mott Community College (MCC) Fine Arts and Social Science Division is hosting a free film screening of “Michigan Divided” on Thursday, Nov. 1 at Noon in the Mott Memorial Building Auditorium. The event is free and open to the public.
“Michigan Divided” is a 48-minute exploration of political division in Michigan. Filmed throughout 2017, the film follows six Michigan families across political, socioeconomic and racial lines. What can the state’s residents agree on? And, how can we work together for a better future? After the film there will be a guided discussion on the movie’s themes and what steps citizens can take to resolve the state’s political division.
This event is a part of Bridge Magazine’s Michigan Truth Tour, a statewide roadshow attempting to ground the upcoming state election in fact and discussion of the state’s most important issues. Throughout 2018, their Michigan Truth Squad is visiting more than 100 communities across the state, ensuring all residents have equal access to reliable information they need to prepare to vote.
