Morris Dees, co-founder of the SPLC, spoke and we were most grateful for his kind words of appreciation for the film and his hopes that it would be seen extensively in America, especially in schools and universities across the country.</p><p>HBO brought two of the 'stars' of the film, Chasidy Buckley and Jessica Shivers, up from Mississippi for the event and they, along with Lecia Brooks of the SPLC and myself fielded the questions after the screening. It was a superb evening with a great crowd, fine food, good wine and to make it even sweeter: reviews and press pieces in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal and many more across the country.</p><p>Finally, though, we were reviewed today on The Huffington Post, which means....we've arrived!!!!</p><p><a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/katya-wachtel/huffpost-review-em-prom-n_b_241066.html" target="_blank">View review huffingtonpost.com</a></p> http://promnightinmississippi.com/RSSRetrieve.aspx?ID=5044&A=Link&ObjectID=75299&ObjectType=56&O=http%253a%252f%252fpromnightinmississippi.com%252f_blog%252fNews%252fpost%252fWe've_arrived!%252fhttp://promnightinmississippi.com/_blog/News/post/We've_arrived!/Mon, 20 Jul 2009 23:24:00 GMT
