Program Description

Event Details

Welcome documentary historian Gregory S. Cooke for an introduction to his film, Invisible Warriors.

Invisible Warriors shares the individual experiences of a small group of elegant ladies who represent the 600,000 Black women who fled lives as domestics and sharecroppers to work in factories and U.S. government offices during World War II. These patriotic pioneers share their wartime memories, recounting their battles against racism at home, Nazism abroad, and sexism everywhere.

Gregory S. Cooke. Cooke is the Founder and President of the Basil and Becky Educational Foundation (BBEEF), a 501c (3) organization dedicated to relocating African Americans from the margins to the main pages of American and global history.

Watch from home on Zoom or join us in person to watch as a group on our large screen in the Community Meeting Room.
