As part of the Naro Video Collection, ODU Libraries welcome the Monarch community to the free film screening of RIOTSVILLE, U.S.A at the Naro Cinema in Norfolk! Please join us on Wednesday, November 16th at 8pm where the film will be introduced by Amanda Peterson, assistant professor of sociology & criminology at ODU.
The new documentary from Sierra Pettengill features a fictional town created by the United States military. "Using footage shot by the media and the government, the film explores the militarization of the police and the reaction of a nation to the uprisings of the late '60s, creating a counter-narrative to a critical moment in the country's history."
