Enjoy a great film, good conversation, and a free wine reception as PBS Documentaries presents a pre-broadcast community screening of The Trials of Muhammad Ali.
Free, but an RSVP is required.
The film highlights Ali’s battle to overturn a five-year prison sentence for refusing US military service in Vietnam. Prior to becoming the iconic face of Nike, Cassius Clay became Muhammad Ali and found himself in the crosshairs of conflicts concerning race, religion, and wartime dissent. ‘Trials’ zeroes in on the most controversial years of Ali’s life, when an emerging sports superhero chooses faith and conscience over fame and fortune.
