Speakers List
The Movement veterans listed here are available for speaking
engagements and to answer email queries. Schools, churches, youth
groups, and other organizations who wish to hear first-hand from
those who participated in the Civil Rights Movement can use this
list to directly contact Movement veterans.
Students in particular have been very interested in the stories we've
told and the experiences we've shared. Example
responses from Calvin Simmons Middle School.
