From the Spanish colony of Santa Elena on present-day Parris Island in the late 16th century to foundational events of the Civil Rights Movement in the 20th\, South Carolina has played a major role in the trajectory of the nation. \nElizabeth Chew became CEO of the South Carolina Historical Society in January 2024. A historian\, curator\, and educator\, she has worked at museums and historic sites since 1985. \nPrior to arriving in Charleston\, she served as Executive Vice President and Chief Curator at James Madison’s Montpelier in Virginia.

SUMMARY:Nothing to Prove: Mac Arnold Returns to the Blues
DESCRIPTION:The 2024 Horry County Museum Documentary Film Series continues with the documentary\, Nothing to Prove: Mac Arnold Returns to the Blues. Southpaw bassist and South Carolina native Mac Arnold was only ten years old when he and his brother built a guitar out of a gas can\, a couple strips of wood\, a handful of nails\, and some screen wire. Arnold played in J. Floyd & the Shamrocks (who frequently featured a young James Brown on piano) while still in high school\, and officially began his professional career when he joined Charles Miller’s band in the early ’60s. He moved to Chicago around 1965 and began working with saxophonist A.C. Reed before hooking up with Muddy Waters and his band in 1966. The Waters stint led to a fair amount of studio work\, and Arnold played bass on several 1960s blues albums\, including Otis Spann’s The Blues Is Where It’s At and John Lee Hooker’s Live at Cafe Au Go Go. By the 1980s Arnold had tired of the road and moved back to South Carolina\, settling in his hometown of Pelzer\, where for all practical purposes he retired from the music business. A group of local musicians kept after him to start performing again\, though\, which led to Arnold eventually fronting his own band\, Mac Arnold & Plate Full o’ Blues. \nThe film is free to the public and will be shown at 1:00 PM\, Wednesday\, September 18th\, at the Horry County Museum\, located at 805 Main Street in Conway. \nThe Horry County Museum Documentary Film Matinees will continue throughout 2024. For a list of films\, visit our website at www.horrycountymuseum.org. For more information\, call the Horry County Museum at 843-915-5320 or e-mail hcg.museum@horrycountysc.gov.

SUMMARY:Born to Rebel\, Driven to Excel
DESCRIPTION:The 2024 Horry County Museum Documentary Film Series continues with Born to Rebel\, Driven to Excel. Part of the Carolina Stories Series by SCETV\, this 30 minute film biography tells the story of South Carolinian\, Dr. Benjamin Mays. \nBenjamin Mays\, from Epworth\, South Carolina\, saw the racism and forced segregation of life around him and decided to challenge it with education and religion. Against the advice of his father\, Mays pursued a formal education and rose to the top of his class\, becoming Dean of Religion at Howard University\, and later earned a Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Chicago. He became president of Morehouse College in 1940\, and his influence on civil rights and education for the next three decades reached far and wide. He met with Mahatma Gandhi\, led Atlanta’s desegregation effort\, and convinced Gone with the Wind author Margaret Mitchell to (secretly) sponsor students. He was mentor and spiritual father to Martin Luther King\, Jr.\, who credited him as his inspiration for entering the ministry. King selected Mays to give his eulogy in the event of his death\, a task Mays fulfilled. Interviewees include Andrew Young\, Hank Aaron\, Mays’ great niece Dr. Marshalyn Yeargin-Allsopp\, and Dr. Robert Franklin. \nThe film is free to the public and will be shown at 1:00 PM\, Wednesday\, December 11th\, at the Horry County Museum\, located at 805 Main Street in Conway. \nThe Horry County Museum Documentary Film Matinees will continue throughout 2024.
