Justice Today:
Turning Dreams Into Reality

Wednesday, September 27 @ 6:30 p.m.
Fasenmyer West Lounge, Allen Theatre

Voter rights. Access to quality education. Prison and incarceration reform. All of these issues were important to Thurgood Marshall and expressions of his desire to see justice and equality for all. In 2023, these issues are still in the news - and we still have heroes who are building connections with individuals, teaching them how to advocate for themselves, and orchestrating policy change. Join us for a lively conversation with Melekte Melaku, Organizing Strategist for the American Civil Liberties Union in Northern Ohio, about what you can do to help out in 21st-century America.

Make Your Own Thurgood Marshall Bag!
Wednesday, September 27 @ 7:00 PM, Allen Lobby

Join the CPH Community Development Team in the Allen Lobby to make a terrific keepsake that you can take home as a celebration of the life of Thurgood Marshall. We'll have canvas tote bags and backpacks on hand - along with some stencils of famous quotes from the Supreme Court justice - and you can paint your bag, let it dry during the show, and pick it up on your way out of the theatre! Free for all attendees until supplies run out.
