Join KQED and Oakland Local for a free film screening of Central Park Five; a new film from award-winning filmmaker Ken Burns, tells the story of the five black and Latino teenagers from Harlem who were wrongly convicted of raping a white woman in New York City’s Central Park in 1989.
The film chronicles The Central Park Jogger case, for the first time from the perspective of these five teenagers whose lives were upended by this miscarriage of justice.
A panel discussion follows the film. Doors open at 6 pm. The event will be held at The Kaiser Auditorium.
