"The Silent Cries of Unborn Ghetto Children," explores trauma, tragedy, racial segregation, and healing centered around a tragic plane crash that occurred on Jan. 16, 1965, just blocks from the campus. In fact, as the plane was losing altitude and jettisoning fuel, some spilled on the campus. Less than four hours later, with jet fuel still on the arena roof, Shocker fans packed onto campus to witness the Shockers defeating St. Louis to claim its first ever Missouri Valley championship.

Directed and co-produced by Dr. Kevin Sylvester Harrison and Riccardo Harris, this film was funded through a grant from Humanities Kansas.

The screening event is co-sponsored by the Dorothy and Bill Cohen Honors College, the Chief Diversity Officer, the Fairmount College of Liberal Arts & Sciences, and the School of Digital Arts & Shocker Studios.
