Sinopsis

We'll talk about the challenges that Civil Rights organizations have faced in the past, the successes they have achieved and discuss the ways they're changing to meet the challenges of the future. The conversation is inspired by two upcoming events taking place in the community - inspired by an upcoming York-James City-Williamsburg NAACP event titled 'NAACP: Our Story, Our Work, Our Partners' and a Colonial Williamsburg hosted forum titled 'A Dream Fulfilled? Race, Citizenship, and the Presidential Election of 2008'. Guests: Rex Ellis, Associate Director of Curatorial Affairs at the National Museum of African American History and Culture of the Smithsonian Institution and Clarence Wilson, the President, York-James City-Williamsburg NAACP and Marc Morial, President.
