THE PEOPLE'S MOVEMENT SELF-GUIDED MEDIA EXHIBIT

Our final day for the exhibit is Friday.

Take time this week to hear the stories of those who feel called to act.  This media exhibit showcases different voices from the historical civil rights movement, as well as contemporary perspectives.  Each listening and reading station highlights a different person engaged in the struggle for a just world with their own answer to why they could not remain silent. Free and open to the public.
