This will be the ninth protest in the series. There has been a protest with at least 100 people at every board meeting this school year. (even in the rain, even when the meeting was cancelled). If you have not been to one of these yet, come and see what you have been missing!

2) A Radical Dreamer:
Rev. Dr. Weldon McWilliams IV will examine the post “I Have a Dream” years in Dr. King’s life. After this speech, Dr. King slowly but surely becomes more disenchanted with the political, economic and social structures of the United States and begins to advocate for systemic change as opposed to mere integration. Come out to what is promised to be a dynamic lecture!
