APT Presents: Shuttlesworth

Rev. Fred Shuttlesworth was raised in the crucible of segregated Birmingham, but he was forged by its attempt to kill him. When the KKK planted a bomb underneath his bed and he emerged unharmed, he was sure he was saved by God to lead a Movement. This documentary explores the life and legacy of an unrelenting freedom fighter who inspired liberation movements all over the world.
