Join us for a free screening of Lincoln Is Crying: The Grifters, Grafters & Governors of Illinois. A scathing and funny indictment of politics in the Land of Lincoln. The documentary is a timely cautionary tale from filmmakers John Davies and Brian Kallies that presents a humorous and sad look at the pervasive, deep-rooted culture of political corruption in Illinois. A panel discussion with the filmmaker John Davies and media consultant Delmarie Cobb, moderated by reporter Mike Flannery, will follow the screening.
