Description 1 online resource (streaming video file) (102 minutes) : .flv file, sound Summary An explosive video goes viral, showing a white school resource officer in South Carolina pull a Black teenager from her school desk and throw her across the floor. An outraged nation divides over who is at fault and what role race played in the incident. Healer-Activist Vivian Anderson uproots her life in NYC and moves to South Carolina to help the girl and dismantle the system behind the "Assault at Spring Valley". To contextualize this incident, geographer Janae Davis treks the surrounding swamps to unearth the overgrown and neglected homes of formerly enslaved people of African descent, drawing a throughline connecting trauma from the past to present Notes Title from title frames Film In Process Record Performer Janae Davis, Robin DiAngelo, Vivian Anderson Event Originally produced by Journeyman Pictures in 2021 Notes In English Subject Spring Valley High School (Columbia, S.C.)
