​

Sep 26th 2:30 p.m. and 6 p.m. NO EXCEPTION TO THE PROMISE FILM SCREENINGS. Join the Detroit Justice Center as they host an inaugural screening of No Exception to the Promise.

Marcus Kelley’s film No Exception To The Promise exposes a truth many Americans never pay attention to: slavery was never fully abolished. Click HERE to register.
