Community invited to Cultural Thursday event at CLC

Central Lakes College’s Cultural Thursday series presents: Civil Disobedience and the Culture of
the Civil Rights Movement. The presentation is at noon on Thursday, Feb. 2 in the Chalberg
Theatre, Brainerd campus.

Presenting will be a panel of Upward Bound Program students and staff and Sociology instructor
Scott Foster, who were part of a trip last summer that looked at the U.S. Civil Rights Trail. The
trip aimed to help participants better understand the legacy of historical and institutional racism
as well as the resilience, persistence and civil disobedience of the Civil Rights Movement. The
group visited Nashville, Montgomery, Selma, Bermingham and Memphis in just under a week.

Join us and support the learning of our emerging student leaders while learning yourself about
the realities of U.S. history and the enduring culture of the Civil Rights Movement.
