TO FREEDOM LAND: A SPECIAL BAINBRIDGE EVENT OF LEARNING AND INSPIRATION

Live on stage at Lynwood Theatre on Bainbridge Island

---

The fight for racial justice and what should be the most common power held by all citizens -- the right to vote -- never stops.From Jefferson Davis and the Confederacy to racial segregation Jim Crow and terror lynching to George Wallace and Massive Resistance to the Civil Rights Movement to Donald Trump and MAGA, it’s all part of the same through line.

As democracy footsoldiers have done forever, we are not going to let anyone turn us around.

Dr. Terry Anne Scott, Director of the Institute for Common Power, and David Domke, Professor at Common Power, have created a unique lecture of inspiration and empowerment for this moment. Together on stage, they take us through two decades -- from World War II through the mid-1960s -- of extraordinary progressive change catalyzed by ordinary people during the modern Civil Rights Movement.
