Orangeburg-Calhoun Technical College and the Center for Creative Partnerships will host Community Cinema, a social justice film series, this spring. The second film in the series, ''Rosenwald'' by Aviva Kempner, tells of the partnership between businessman and philanthropist Julius Rosenwald, the son of Jewish immigrants, and Booker T. Washington, who was born into slavery and rose to become the founder of the Tuskegee Institute and an advisor to U.S. presidents. Together, they built 5,500 schools for African-American children in the South. Filmmaker Kempner will be on hand to discuss the film. The film series is funded in part by OCtech and South Carolina Humanities and sponsored by Cox Industries Inc. It is free and open to the public.
