Nominated for a NAACP Image Award, DARE NOT WALK ALONE explores the little known Civil Rights movement in St. Augustine, Fl and its aftermath. Uncovering long forgotten footage, including scenes of the near death beating of Ambassador Andrew Young, and a motel owner pouring acid on a swimming pool filled with Civil Rights demonstrators, Dare Not Walk Alone charts how the St. Augustine movement was pivotal in helping pass the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and how local residents continue their struggle to claim the equality promised by the movement forty years earlier.
