Freedom House Ambulance-The First Responders, February 21 ( 8 p.m. only)
Founded in Pittsburgh's Hill District, Freedom House Ambulance Service was the nation's first training service for emergency medical technicians. This documentary tells the story of the community's needs and the local, predominantly Black residents that stepped up to meet them. We will be joined by John Moon, a pioneering African-American EMT who made this work happen, one of our union activists in healthcare who will discuss the current challenges of the job (USW has over 50,000 workers in the healthcare sector), and the Emmy-winning filmmaker, Annette Banks.
