Cost: Free, donations to benefit Hosea Feed The Hungry

From the venue:

Here’s your chance to see the outrageous First Place winner at the Atlanta Film Festival 2010. Celebrate the era of classic R&B radio with the trailblazer who helped start it all, James ‘Alley Pat’ Patrick, who will attend in person. He’s the last surviving DJ from the first black-owned radio station in the USA, Atlanta ‘s WERD- AM. Hear Pat screamin’ over classic 1950’s jazz and blues, and improvise his way through hilarious live commercials. Yet off-air, he’s a quiet bail bondsman helping locked-up civil rights workers get out of some very tight spots. Presented by Urban Film Review.
