Everyone in East Tennessee should try to be there. We will be there and hopefully at the after party as well.

Cover Y'all Productions presents Beyond the Myth: A Film about Pit Bulls and Breed Discrimination
Friday, September 3, 8 p.m.
Knoxville native Libby Sherrill didn’t own pit bulls. She didn’t know much more about them than most people. But when her close friend brought two rescued pit bulls, Angus and Boris, to her house, neighbors called asking fearfully, "Are those pit bulls running around over there?" That was Sherrill’s introduction to the public’s misconception about pit bulls and what prompted the avid animal lover to produce her first documentary, Beyond the Myth. Using education as its foundation, the documentary aims to create perspective about the most misunderstood animal of our time. Beyond the Myth uncovers the stereotypes most people associate with pit bulls, such as being born dangerous and not safe with children or other pets and explains what role the media has played in creating this negative stereotype. No children under the age of 13 are allowed due to some graphic, although minimal, content.
$12 general admission / $55 VIP (includes special seating, goodie bag and access to the VIP After Party at S&W Grand)
