Refreshments will be served. Our own Reed Miller, Senior at USA will be on the student panel with students from other area schools. Mobile's own Clara Ester will be speaking. Clara, an African American woman who has spent all her life in the South, was shaped by her experiences as a community organizer amidst the tumult of the 1960s. As a college student, she was a witness at the Lorraine Motel when Dr. King was killed in Memphis. The events changed her life and the communities where she has lived and served.
