Fulton County’s Black History Month Film Festival is going virtual this year because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The county is partnering with the Urban Film Review to host this year’s festival, highlighting the contributions of Black Americans.

Screenings will take place every Saturday in February.

Films include: “We The People: From Crispus Attucks To Barack Obama” and “Building Atlanta: The Story of Herman J. Russell.” Russell was the first African American member of the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce and the founder of the largest minority-owned real estate and construction business in the United States.

The films can be viewed on Comcast channels 21 (inside the city of Atlanta) and 23 (outside Atlanta city limits) as well on AT&T U-Verse in the metropolitan area.

The film festival can also be viewed online at www.fultoncountyga.gov/watch-fgtv.
