Dr. Bob Zellner, Civil Rights Activist
7:00 PM, March 6, 2012
K-State Student Union Forum Hall
On Tuesday, March 6, 2012, the Dorothy L. Thompson Civil Rights Lecture Series will welcome Bob Zellner to Kansas State University. Mr. Zellner will speak about his lifelong engagement in the Civil Rights movement. As a college student he was drawn to the struggle for desegregation in the South, and he has been a persistent voice for justice issues ever since. He has recently published an autobiography about his experiences called "The Wrong Side of Murder Creek: A White Southerner in the Freedom Movement" (NewSouth Books, 2008). There will be a book signing after the lecture with books available to purchase for $15 each (regularly $27.99).
