DOCUMENTARY SCREENING: SILENT DIGNITY WITH FILMMAKER WAYNE SOARES
Clarksburg, 1 - 3 p.m.

Join Wayne Soares at the Clarksburg Town Library for a screening and discussion of his Emmy award-winning documentary, Silent Dignity.

Many of those who served in Vietnam suffered in a conspiracy of silence – not out of shame, but by bitter experience, brought on by the hostility of their countrymen. Most Vietnam Veterans returned home to emptiness & ridicule, where they were left to a nation increasingly uncomfortable with their presence. These Vietnam Veterans discovered, astonishingly, that a good portion of their country had rejected them with overwhelming contempt.
