The documentary, “Crossing Overtown” chronicles the early efforts of Black individuals in Miami throughout the decades, fearlessly and relentlessly advocating for equality through a non-violent protest in the 1950s, the incendiary sparks igniting riots throughout the decades, and the persistent pursuits for justice, equality, and the leaders forged by fire through adversity. Catch it playing on loop at the Member’s Lounge of the FIU Frost Art Museum from June 10-24 between 11:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.

Statement of Free Expression

FIU endorses the Florida Board of Governors' Statement of Free Expression to support and encourage full and open discourse and the robust exchange of ideas and perspectives on our campuses. In addition to supporting this legal right, we view this as an integral part of our ability to deliver a high-quality academic experience for our students, engage in meaningful and productive research, and provide valuable public service. This includes fostering civil and open dialogue in support of critical thinking in and out of the classroom, including events hosted by the university.
