Mississippi Remixed
Check out Mississippi Remixed on MPB Thursday night at 8 o’clock.
Mississippi ReMixed is a documentary about the current state of race relations in Mississippi.
Mississippi Remixed tells the personal story of Canadian, Myra Ottewell, who returns to her birthplace in Jackson, Mississippi determined to celebrate the great racial transformations in the state since the 1960s, but discovers that understanding race relations is far more complicated than she bargained for. Mixed with never before seen archival footage, the controversial documentary explores the state of race relations today, celebrates the transformations occurring, and exposes the struggles and successes Mississippi is having with integration today.

Would love to see an episode. Studying race relations with students. Any suggestions?
