SHORT DESCRIPTIONS

About Light In The Darkness
Not In Our Town: Light in the Darkness tells the story of the residents in a Long Island community taking action after a local immigrant is killed in a hate crime attack. The story provides a blueprint for people who want to do something before intolerance turns to violence. The film airs nationwide on PBS stations on Sept. 21. (Check local listings for air times.) As part of Not In Our Town National Week of Action, Sept. 18-24, communities throughout the country will host screenings, events and discussions on hate crime prevention and new ways to make their towns safer for everyone. For more information on how communities can get involved, visit niot.org/LightintheDarkness.
 
About Not In Our Town
Developed by The Working Group in 1995, Not In Our Town began with a PBS documentary that told the story of how people in Billings, Montana joined together to respond to a series of hate crimes in their town. This simple, powerful story of citizens banding together struck a chord with audiences, and created a model that inspired viewers around the country to hold their own campaigns against intolerance. Not In Our Town has grown from a PBS documentary into a national effort to connect people working together to take action against hate and create safe, inclusive communities. Learn more at NIOT.org
 
NotInOurSchool.org
Not In Our School (NIOS) highlights students, teachers and school leaders standing together against bullying and intolerance. NotInOurSchool.org features more than 20 Not In Our School videos, case studies and activities from schools across the country, and lesson plans from our education partner Facing History and Ourselves designed to spark dialogue and action about bullying, cyberbullying, diversity/multiculturalism, stereotypes and prejudice. After viewing the films, students can start their own Not In Our School activities, with support and guidance from teachers and administrators.
 
About NIOT.org and PBS.org/NIOT
NIOT.org is an extensive resource hub for individuals, communities and schools seeking ways to address hate and intolerance. NIOT.org is home to nearly 70 short films, an interactive map that both tracks hate crimes as well as community efforts, and an action kit with local lessons and model activities.
 
PBS.org/NIOT will be the landing page for the broadcast of Not In Our Town: Light in the Darkness. PBS.org/NIOT will feature excerpts from the film, which will broadcast nationally on Sept. 21 and links to the host of community-building resources on NIOT.org. In conjunction with the fall PBS broadcast, NIOT.org visitors can download comprehensive screening and discussion guides and suggested activities for the Not In Our Town national Week of Action, Sept. 18-24.
