Briars in the Cottonpatch: The Story of Koinonia Farm

The story of a courageous group of blacks and whites, including Cotton Patch Gospel author Clarence Jordan who withstood bullets, bombs and boycotts in the years leading up to the civil rights era. Current and former Koinonia partners, local historians and townspeople recall the tremendous resistance to this experimental Christian community.

Narrated by former Atlanta mayor and civil rights veteran Andrew Young, this documentary examines the remarkable personalities and events of Koinonia farm, where black and white families worked side by side. One of the outcomes was the birth of Habitat for Humanity International.
