“Can I ask your race?” the security guard at Maryland’s Glen Echo Amusement Park asks a black man, Rev. Laurence Henry, as he tries to enter. “My race? I belong to the human race,” he replies. And he is denied entry. Emmy-Award winning director Ilana Trachtman delivers a superb documentary that covers the courage of students at Howard University who sat on the whites-only carousel and the Jewish community members who were persistent to help bring about change.
