Temple Adas Israel presents a screening of “Rosenwald,” a documentary by Aviva Kempner on the incredible story of how businessman and philanthropist Julius Rosenwald joined with African American communities in the South to build schools for them during the early part of the 20th century. This historical partnership, as well as the modern-day attempts to maintain or reconfigure the schools, is a great dramatic story—yet too little-known.
