“Locked Out: The Fall of Massive Resistance”
More than five decades ago the government of Virginia led a movement to prevent public schools from integrating their classrooms. Termed Massive Resistance, the effort had a profound and lasting affect on school children in Virginia and across the south. What took place to help the commonwealth and the nation overcome those times and more importantly, what remains to be done? “Locked Out” tells the story of the fall of Massive Resistance with first-hand accounts from the students who lived through this concerted abuse of public power.

This one hour documentary was produced by the Community Idea Stations in partnership with the University of Virginia Center for Politics.
