Alcorn State University’s Phi Alpha Theta & History Club will host the viewing of the documentary The Parchman Ordeal: The Untold Story, on November 6 at 1pm. Immediately following the documentary there will be a panel discussion with the film’s producer, Mark LaFrancis, and two survivors of the horrific event. The documentary is especially significant to Alcorn’s history and Charles Evers and his brother Medgar Evers both served as Field Secretary of the NAACP and were graduates of Alcorn State.
