Passage at St. Augustine - Civil Rights Doc

the American public spellbound. Nearly fifty years later, filmmaker Clennon L. King returned to this tourist town–named for an African bishop – to track down veterans from the frontlines – the sung, the unsung, segregationists and civil rights foot soldiers alike. The result is a cinematic page-turner that weaves a compelling tapestry about a missing chapter of the Movement – one that invariably begs the question why a battle so key to the passage of the Civil Rights Act of ‘64 remains hardly a footnote in the annals of history.
