Rider Student Shows Documentary at
Patty Wittenburg has become the first Rider student ever to have a film screened at the world-famous Cannes International Film Festival when the Stills of the Movement: The Civil Rights Photojournalism of Flip Schulke debuted on May 13. The 29-minute documentary, co-produced by Wittenburg and Dr. Shawn Kildea, chronicles the career of the legendary lensman, whose photographs of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., civil rights demonstrations, protests and riots, and other iconic figures of the movement such as boxing great Muhammad Ali, gave people from every corner of America a glimpse into the struggles of African-Americans to attain equality in the turbulent 1960s.
