Come Hear One Man’s Story – A True One
Join Ray Rickman in a tour de force presentation as he takes you on his quest for civil rights, from the 1966 “March Against Fear” in Mississippi with James Meredith, where he almost lost his life at the hands of the local sheriff, to taking on the Detroit School Department, to working side-by-side with Rosa Parks.
