SUMMARY:Film Screening | There Goes The Neighborhood: The Closing of Jones 
 School
DESCRIPTION:\nAs part of Ann Arbor 200\, the Ann Arbor District Library an
 d 7 Cylinders Studio (7CS) have produced a documentary film about the clos
 ing of Ann Arbor's Jones School. In 1965\, the Board of Education closed t
 he majority-Black school. Ann Arbor joined a nationwide trend of school de
 segregation during the Civil Rights Era. But for these young students\, th
 e loss of a neighborhood school foreshadowed changes to their close-knit c
 ommunity. Gentrification came to Ann Arbor on the heels of desegregation.\
 n\n\n\nIn the making of this film\, 7CS filmmakers and AADL archivists int
 erviewed over thirty former Jones students and Black community leaders. Th
 ey shared memories of Jones School and "The Old Neighborhood"—the areas 
 now known as Kerrytown and Water Hill. A filmed walking tour\, studio inte
 rviews\, and historical photos form the core of the film. Run time is appr
 oximately 40 minutes.\n\n\n\nThis project is part of Ann Arbor 200\, AADL
 ’s commemoration of the city’s bicentennial year.\n\n\n\nFor teens &am
 p\; adults\n\n\n\n\n
