Prom Night screening for Black History Month An Oakville synagogue and the Caribbean community have teamed up to present a film for Black History Month that deals with the segregation of whites and blacks. The film Prom Night in Mississippi will be shown at Silvercity Cinema in Oakville Wednesday, Feb. 24. A discussion will follow the film lead by the film's director and Oakville-resident Paul Saltzman. The film is about a real town in Mississippi that, until 2008, had separate proms for the black and the white students at its public high school. The documentary deals with the reaction of the community in the wake of a single, all-race prom. Prom Night is presented by the Canadian Caribbean Association of Halton and Shaarei-Beth El Congregation of Halton, both located in Oakville. Tickets cost $5.
