Conversations with Bob Zellner
Longtime civil and human rights activist
Formerly in SNCC (Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee)
Young and old activists alike can't miss this opportunity to meet and talk
with a living historical treasure. Topics can include democratic organizing
and the "beloved community" of SNCC, the political spectrum with which we
build coalitions, building a sustainable organization, race and gender in
organizing - you can shape the conversation with this rare opportunity.
TODAY!
5:30 p.m.
MIT, Bldg 3, Room 270

"All Americans owe them a debt for - if nothing else - releasing the
idealism locked so long inside a nation that has not recently tasted the
drama of a social upheaval...Theirs was the silent generation until they
spoke, the complacent generation until they marched and sang, the
money-seeking generation until they renounced comfort and security to fight
for justice in the dark and dangerous hamlets of the Black Belt [of the
South]..."
- - Howard Zinn, SNCC: The New Abolitionists, 1964.
