The premiere screening of the documentary Change Comes Knocking: The Story of the N.C. Fund will take place at 7 p.m. Tuesday, March 25 at Union Auditorium on the UNC campus. The showing will be followed by a discussion with filmmakers and professors. The documentary tells the story of the anti-poverty North Carolina Fund established in 1963 by Gov. Terry Sanford. Fund employees worked to empower poor NC blacks and whites against a background of national racial unrest. The film was made by Durham’s Video Dialog Inc. and sponsored by the Southern Documentary Fund.
