Come meet celebrity author in Wellesley!

Hello,

Want to get out and enjoy an evening in the company of an award winning journalist talking about a subject we are still discussing 50+ years later?

Please join me in The World of Wellesley Community Book Read, "Give Us the Ballot", in-person author event on March 21st. Ari Berman, an award winning journalist and the author of "Give Us the Ballot" documents the historical context for the passage of the Voting Rights Act and provides insights into the ways in which the VRA has been challenged since 1965 AND why we're still talking about voting rights.

Ironically Wellesley's local elections were held on March 7th on the 58th anniversary of "Bloody Sunday", the day when over 600 voting rights advocates were met with considerable violence by State Troopers as they attempted to cross the Edmund Pettus bridge on their march from Selma to Montgomery.

Do you believe voting rights are fundamental to our democracy?

Want to learn more? Please join me at the author event at Wellesley College on March 21st. Books will be available and Ari will be available to sign them as desired.

Promoting and advertising events has become such a challenge these days. I kindly ask you to share this event with your friends and networks.

Hope to see you there,
