Honoring the Legacy – Fifty Years of Voting Rights 1965 – 2015 March 21, 2015

A breakfast to celebrate an important civil rights milestone and support community advocates.

Please join the New Bedford NAACP and the New Bedford Historical Society on March 21 as we join together to celebrate an important milestone in U.S. Civil Rights, the 50th anniversary of the passage of the Voting Rights Act that protected the right to vote for all citizens of the U.S.

Our guest speaker will be Enola Aird, President of the Community Healing Network of New Haven that seeks to deepen our knowledge of historical forces and their impact on our lives.

Tickets available from NAACP and NB Historical Society members or by calling (508) 979-8828 for additional information.
