"Marching Forward" is the history of two dedicated high school band directors -one black,one white- inspired by music to cross color lines in the Deep South and work together for the sake of their students. This courageous cooperation resulted in the experience of a lifetime for Orlando's black and white students at the 1964 New York World's Fair.
