ABOUT DR. ENID C. PINKNEY- FOUNDING PRESIDENT/CEO
Once upon a time, in a part of Miami called BrownSub, now known as Brownsville, there was a place so special it drew people from all over the South as well as the rest of the nation. Those of us with a little age on us remember the good times inside the doors of the Hampton House Motel, featuring luxurious accommodations with valet parking, 24-hour food service, a banquet hall, and a jazz club where all colors of people congregated to hear the best performers of the day. And not only was the jazz great, but the Hampton House was also important historically. Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, and Muhammad Ali were frequent guests and the Miami chapter of the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) had its weekly meetings there. Few places in Miami can boast of such a legacy. As the President of the Historic Hampton House Community Trust, I am asking for your help in achieving our dream of bringing back the Hampton House for future generations. Today Pinkney still serves at the Hampton House daily, working to make sure black history and the contributions blacks have made to Miami are not lost. She believes it is critical that accurate stories are passed down to future generations.
ABOUT ONE NIGHT IN MIAMI
On one incredible night in 1964, four icons of sports, music, and activism gathered to celebrate one of the biggest upsets in boxing history. When underdog Cassius Clay, soon to be called Muhammad Ali, (Eli Goree), defeats heavyweight champion Sonny Liston at the Miami Convention Hall, Clay memorialized the event with three of his friends: Malcolm X (Kingsley Ben-Adir), Sam Cooke (Leslie Odom Jr.) and Jim Brown (Aldis Hodge). Based on the award-winning play of the same name, and directed by Regina King, One Night In Miami… is a fictional account inspired by the historic night these four formidable figures spent together. It looks at the struggles these men faced and the vital role they each played in the civil rights movement and cultural upheaval of the 1960s. More than 40 years later, their conversations on racial injustice, religion, and personal responsibility still resonate.
