African American Civil Rights

The Civil Rights Movement in America has endured a difficult and tumultuous path. The Emancipation Proclamation ended the institution of slavery. The Fourteenth Amendment should have guaranteed freedoms, equality, and civil rights for all men, however it would take many generations of hardships and court cases for that reality to be achieved. Join us around the table for a discussion of this complicated road.

This program will be conducted as a Socratic discussion, utilizing primary source documents as the only readings in our conversation. All attendees of this free professional development will receive lunch, a letter of attendance, as well as paper and digital copies of the reader.
