Also, the film "The Democratic Promise: Saul Alinsky and his Legacy" will be shown at 6 p.m. at the Main Library, 133 Elm St. An early influence on many of current political leaders, including Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, Alinsky is credited with the slogan "Think globally, act locally," library organizers said.
