My Mother's Journey is a 60-minute feature documentary on the life of Elizabeth "Liz" Hampton. Directed by her son, Dr. Sam Hampton, the film chronicles the pressure that Liz felt as a young, impoverished single mother in the midst of a community smoldering in racial tension. Following the lead of Rochester reformers before her, she is spurred to make change in the community around her, improving her personal position and that of many people like her.
