OC Racial Justice Collaborative - Anne Braden White Southern Allies
New May 20 Sunday 1-3:30pm, Santa Ana: OC Racial Justice Collaborative - Anne Braden White Southern Allies @ Youth-on-the-Move, Inc. Hqt., 1850 E. 17th. Street #103 Lynn Burnett will be offering a lecture, followed by a facilitated discussion, about the radical white southerner Anne Braden and her involvement in the civil rights movement. We'll hone in on the moments in Anne's life that allowed her to shift her consciousness away from supporting segregation, and towards ultimately becoming a trusted ally and friend of movement leaders including Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King Jr., and Ella Baker. We'll also bring our attention to organizing and movement strategies, and reflect on what we personally find most meaningful from Anne's story. We welcome you to bring your own snacks or snacks to share! There is a large free parking lot directly behind the building off of 16th St. More info: facebook.com/events/1903770963006805 http://ocprogressiveevents.info/#May20rjc
