Saturday, Aug. 1, 7:00 pm, Main Hall. How does a white man born into the KKK become a civil rights activist?
Bob Zellner, 87, is visiting Sacramento from Alabama. Join us for a talk about his incredible life. Learn how each of us can find a place in the current struggles for justice. He joined the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee on graduation from college in 1961.
His early life is dramatized in Spike Lee and Barry Alexander’s 2020 film “Son of the South.” Watch the film’s trailer at the bottom of this post.
