Description

The Reverend Jesse Louis Jackson Sr. Center for Racial Justice at Simmons College of Kentucky is offering free political education classes in honor of the 60th anniversary of the Mississippi Freedom Summer. In each class, students will learn about political systems, who is trying to improve them, and how to get involved. All classes will be taught by Jecorey Arthur, a professor of music, sociology, and activism at Simmons College of Kentucky. He will be joined by special guests with experience in organizing, government, and more. Each class will be hosted in-person at different community centers and online via Zoom. Dinner will be provided by Mattie's Kitchen. We need volunteers to help set up chairs, tables, and dinner. We'll also need help with take down.
