Panel Discussion – The Civil Rights Act in Southern Maryland: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow

47855 College Drive
St. Mary's City

01 Oct 2024

7:00pm - 8:00pm

Overview

To commemorate the 60-year anniversary of the Civil Rights Act and to coincide with Governor Wes Moore’s proclamation of 2024 as Maryland’s Year of Civil Rights, the Center for the Study of Democracy, St. Mary’s College of Maryland, Historic St. Mary’s City, and Historic Sotterley will host a panel discussion titled “The Civil Rights Act in Southern Maryland: Yesterday, Today, and for Tomorrow.” This program will feature distinguished members of the region from academia, law, activist and advocacy circles, and the museum studies community to explore the legacy of the Civil Rights Act in Southern Maryland. We hope to stimulate dialogue, enhance learning, forge partnerships, and promote civic engagement within the Southern Maryland community.

A pre-event reception with light refreshments will take place at 6 p.m. in the lobby of the Dodge PAC.

The photograph was taken outside. A child, around two or three years old, is holding a small wooden mallet in one hand and a flower in the other. She is sitting at a wooden picnic table, in front of her are two small paper plates and a handful of leaves and wildflowers in front of her. She is wearing yellow sunglasses and is focused on her work. She is making a craft as part of the Little Explorers toddler program.
