The next History Pub, “Untold Stories of the Civil Rights Movement,” will take place from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. March 26 at McMenamins Kennedy School, 5736 NE 33rd Avenue. Doors open at 6 p.m. This event is free and open to the public.

This panel discussion will feature Joyce Harris, Sen. Jackie Winters, Charmaine Joyce Coleman, and Charlotte Rutherford and will be moderated by Joy Alise Davis.

Event attendees will learn about the traditionally untold stories of the Civil Rights Movement, specifically the role of women of color. Speakers will share reflections on their work in the Oregon Civil Rights Movement — their struggles and greatest memories — as well as advice for young activists on how to get involved and what they can do to make a positive difference in their local communities.
