Vivian Gibson, the author of The Last Children of Mill Creek had a movie review here and I attended. The presentation was amazing! The most profound takeaway is how "THEY" tried to erase the black family. Many great St. Louisans came from this area including my mom and dad; Brenda Frances Ross and Nathan "Bull" Lattimore. My dad was a world renowned boxer. He mentored and sparred with the Spinks brothers.
