THE LOYOLA PROJECT
(Milwaukee premiere)
In 1963, at the height of the civil rights movement, the Loyola Ramblers of Chicago broke racial barriers on their way to a national championship. Now, nearly 60 years later, this legendary team is reexamined by Loyola basketball player and co-captain, Lucas Williamson. Woven together with archival footage and modern-day interviews, this captivating story is surprisingly relevant to today's continued struggle for equality.
Admission is free and all who attend receive a redeemable popcorn and soda voucher, courtesy of presenting sponsor Northwestern Mutual.
