The Civil Rights Era: Lessons for Today
June 15, 2020 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Monday, June 15
7 p.m.
What does it mean to stand for justice in troubled times and how do we remember difficult moments in history after they have passed? In this discussion we will draw on stories, images, and documents from local and national history to increase our understanding of a tumultuous passage in American History, the Jewish community’s contributions to civil rights in Louisville, and this history’s impact on the present day.
Speaker: Abigail Glogower, PhD
Curator of Jewish Collections and Jewish Community Archive at The Filson Historical Society
Special Guest Arnold Zegart
Hosted by the Jewish Community Relations Council, Melanie Maron Pell and Becky Ruby Swansburg
