    We are pleased to announce that Tim Tyson, the author of The Blood of Emmett Till and Blood Done Sign My Name, and a Scholar in Residence in the Center for Documentary Studies at Duke University, will speak as our guest on Wednesday, May 21, at 6:30 p.m. at the Rialto Theater in Raleigh, and that the Reverend Elijah McDavid, a dynamic speaker from Minneapolis, Minnesota will join him.

    McDavid, originally from Virginia, is a magna cum laude graduate of Morehouse College in Atlanta and a graduate of Union Theological Seminary in New York City. He currently serves as the Senior Pastor at Fellowship Missionary Baptist Church, where he increased membership from 500 to 1,500 in a relatively short amount of time.

    Both speakers will address the topic of Faith and Democracy, and we hope to get faith leaders to come to this event. If you wish to attend, look for an email invite or contact us directly. Be aware that seating is limited. If you are willing to sponsor, please let us know.
