The Maryland Lynching Memorial Project and the Institute for Common Power, have partnered to continue the 2025 virtual film series with a screening of My Father's Name. First screened at the 2024 MLMP Conference, MLMP has subsequently received numerous requests to host a second, virtual screening of this award-winning film.

Summary

Years after Lee Ed Frazier's death, his daughter Jan Frazier made a shocking discovery: as a young man her father had participated in a lynching. Now, as she attempts to uncover the truth about what happened, Jan must reckon with deeply conflicted feelings about the father she loved, grapple with how to hold her family accountable, and face the dawning awareness of her own unconscious racism.
