Samuel Proctor Oral History Program

Join us on February 28, 2017, as we welcome acclaimed labor and civil rights historian Michael Honey and award winning filmmaker Errol Webber for a screening of Love and Solidarity. Their film illuminates the struggle against violence and the fight for human rights, peace, and economic justice through interviews with Reverend Lawson and archival film footage. By illuminating his extraordinary experiences, the film also sheds light on nonviolent social change at the forefront of contemporary civil rights struggles.

Join us as we reflect upon the past 13 years of the Mississippi Freedom Project and on memorable trips to the Delta.
