August has passed, I may be able to get a notice of the program before the issue goes to the <br />printers. <br />I have written the following description: <br />In honor� of the SOth anniversary of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 Senator John Marty will <br />introduce a film documenta�y on the sto�y of the fo�gotten heroes in the fight for voting <br />rights—the courageous students and teachers of Selma, Alabama, who stood up against <br />injustice despite facing intimidation, arrests and violence. Co-sponsored by the Shoreview and <br />Roseville Human Rights Commissions. <br />I can make any changes you want, but I would have to get them by the end of the day. The <br />sooner we get the description to our communications people, the better the chance of getting it in <br />the newsletter is. <br />I should also point out that the Roseville Library is already sponsoring a lecture and <br />reminiscence on the SOth anniversary of the Voting Right Act on Thursday, August 6, by well- <br />known historian (and Movement veteran) J.C. Andersen. I will include mention of this film <br />presentation in the press release on the Andersen program that Pll distribute to local media in <br />early July. <br />Let me know if I can answer any questions you may have. I'll look forward to seeing Sen. <br />Marty (who, until fairly recently, was my state senatar) <br />Best wishes, <br />Judy <br />Judy Woodward <br />History Coordinator <br />Ramsey County Library <br />2180 Hamline Ave. N. <br />Roseville, MN 55113 <br />TeL• (651) 724-6022 <br />FAX: (651) 628-6805 <br />jwood e,ramsey.lib.mn.us <br />
