Monday Movies: Always in Season

Monday Night Movies has been screening socially conscious documentaries at the Magic Lantern for a couple years now, living up to its tagline of “True Stories, Bold Visions.” For Black History Month, the series is showing Always in Season, Jackie Olive’s recent, Sundance-approved documentary that confronts violence and racism in America. The film tells of the murder of Lennon Lacey, a black North Carolina teenager who was lynched in 2014, and examines how the death is another horrifying example of history repeating itself. The series continues through the summer on the second Monday of the month, and upcoming films include such subjects as the late musician Sharon Jones and China’s one-child policy.
