Part of the 2020 film series, “What Does Trouble Mean? Nate Smith’s Revolution” follows the journey of Black laborer Nate Smith and his unexpected evolution into charismatic leadership, as he forced the integration of Pittsburgh’s construction trade unions in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Produced by Robert Morris University Center for Documentary Production & Study, this one-hour documentary chronicles the beginning of the Black Construction Coalition and speaks to the economic rights of Pittsburgh’s Black citizens.
