“Decade of Fire” will be screened Tuesday, Feb. 11 at 6 p.m. at UNL’s Beadle Center, 1901 Vine St. A community discussion will follow the screening.
“Decade of Fire” tells the story of fires that raged through the South Bronx in the 1970s.
Abandoned by landlords and city officials, nearly a half-million residents were displaced from their beloved neighborhood. With the help of fellow survivors, filmmakers tell the story of the residents who banded together amidst the rubble and built a better future for their community.
The discussion following the screening will be facilitated by Bronx native Jake Kirkland.
