Mid-South families could receive thousands from COVID-19 relief bill Final vote on COVID relief package expected tomorrow By Brandon Richard | March 9, 2021 at 6:10 PM CST - Updated March 9 at 6:38 PM MEMPHIS, Tenn.

The film was broadcast on Feb. 18 and Feb. 21 on Chicago’s WTTW Channel 11. “(Mandela) came to thank the people for all the work they had been doing, and I wanted Chicago to get some credit for that,” Greenwell said. “So much of history would have been lost had it not been for the film, so I’m hoping that the film itself will be a catalyst to really reignite interest in what happened in South Africa, but also what is still happening in South Africa.” ....
