SNCC activist Bob Moses conceived of Freedom Summer, an historic voter registration drive mounted across Mississippi, in response to the violent oppression and disenfranchisement of Black people in America’s South that had gone on for generations, in plain view of anyone who would look.
Opposing the effort: a murderous and near-omnipotent state apparatus sworn to bar Blacks from participating in democracy at any cost. And the cost it extracted was nearly unbearable.
What would Moses, John Lewis, and other ‘60s activists say about the choices we now face, given the gutting of the Voting Rights Act, the proliferation of voter suppression and disinformation campaigns, and the prospect of armed federal agents at the polls? How are today’s voting rights groups working to enfranchise Blacks, Native Americans, Latinos, and other communities in ways that echo the moral imperatives and political urgency of Freedom Summer?
Join us this Saturday, October 10, at Brooklyn Public Library for a conversation with Clarissa Martínez De Castro, Jacqueline De León (Isleta Pueblo Nation), Judy Richardson, and moderator Dawn Porter, titled DEMAND DEMOCRACY.
Held as part of UPRISING/DOWNFALL: Repression and Resistance in the Making of Democracy, on Saturday, October 10, 7-11pm. Presented by @bklynlibrary and @bplpresents. Brian Tate, Guest Curator.
Free RSVP at the link in the bio. Please share widely and don’t miss.
