9/26/15 review of documentary Rosenwald, dir. by Aviva Kempner

Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of the documentary Rosenwald, directed by Aviva Kempner.

Rosenwald is about Julius Rosenwald, the CEO of Sears-Roebuck who also did a lot to fund African American and Southern education and culture. The documentary discusses Rosenwald's upbringing and how he got into business, as well as things like the Sears catalog. The documentary discusses how he was influenced to do good for the African American community and some of the things he did, including working with Booker T. Washington to build over 5,300 schools.

Here is the trailer for Rosenwald.

I saw this documentary at Landmark Theatres Chez Artiste Theatre in Denver, Colorado.
