The song and the silence: a story about family, race, and what was revealed in a small town in the Mississippi Delta while searching for Booker Wright

Trama

"Devo mantenere quel sorriso", ha detto Booker Wright nel documentario della NBC del 1966 Mississippi: A Self-Portrait. All'epoca, Wright trascorreva le sue serate ad aspettare i tavoli per i bianchi in un ristorante locale e le sue mattine a gestire la propria attività.
