About this Event
PBS North Carolina and the Durham County Library proudly present an Indie Lens Pop-Up Screening of THE INQUISITOR
Join us for a special screening and discussion featuring THE INQUISITOR, a new documentary from Independent Lens.
THE INQUISITOR chronicles the remarkable journey of Barbara Jordan, the groundbreaking Texas congresswoman whose sharp intellect and moral clarity transformed U.S. politics. From Nixon’s impeachment to civil rights battles, her voice demanded accountability, while she privately faced challenges few ever saw.

Date: Tuesday, March 10 at 6 PM
Time: 6-8 PM
Location: Durham County Main Library located at 300 N. Roxboro Street, Durham

- Explore leadership, representation, and public service through the life and legacy of Barbara Jordan
- Examine how race, gender, and lived experience shaped public leadership in 20th-century America
- Encourage shared reflection about access, participation, and barriers to engagement in civic and public life
This discussion is designed to be inclusive, thoughtful, and engaging and welcoming a wide range of perspectives and experiences.
