| Summary |
Grand Saline, Texas has a history of racism--a history the community doesn't talk about. This shroud of secrecy ended when Charles Moore, an elderly white preacher, self-immolated to protest the town's racism in 2014, shining a spotlight on the town's dark past. MAN ON FIRE untangles the pieces of this protest and questions racism in Grand Saline today. |
