What does supporting the black community mean for white people? What does it mean for black people? Learn how Mister Rogers and his friend Officer Clemmons (the Black Police Officer on the Show) give us an idea of one way to do it together. How do each of us do our part for racial injustice? How did Mister Rogers, how did François Clemmons (who plays that black office on the show)? Learn how their quiet, yet powerful actions broke barriers and helped lay groundwork for true integration after the 60s. François Clemmons ... who was he really? Learn all about his life with Mister Rogers, and outside the show, and how he overcame so much, and made a life long friend of Mister R himself. And forgiveness... how would you define it? Find out how differently each of us think about it, what it means in our life, your life, and if it has a role or not in our racially divided country today.
