PubliCalendar: 'Best of Enemies' Premieres Tonight
Today's picks for civic nerds

For Today
Best of Enemies Opening Night
At first glance, the premise of Best of Enemies seems like cartoonish fiction intent on making a broad moral point: A Ku Klux Klan leader and a strong black woman becoming friends while on a community committee about desegregating schools in the 1970s? Please.
But the story of C. P. Ellis and Ann Atwater’s bonding is true and speaks to the power of opening minds. Check out this special screening of a true story that shines a spotlight on recognizing the humanity of one another to work together to change the future.
Best of Enemies, Wed, Mar 25, 7:30pm, Taproot Theatre, 204 N 85th St, $20–$40
For Thursday

The deadline to fill out a parklet/streatery application has been extended to Monday, March 30.
