'Uniontown' Documentary Short Film Trailer

UNIONTOWN weaves together the untold narratives of residents in Uniontown, Alabama, a long-silenced southern city continuously polluted by industrial waste and acts of environmental racism. Driven by the story of Esther Calhoun, a community leader and president of the Black Belt Citizens for Health and Justice, the film is an intimate look at the lives of modern day freedom fighters determined to clean up their town and preserve what’s left of their natural resources. This film was directed by 2018 Redford Center grantee Fraser Jones.
