From Barriers to Bridges: The Urgency of Justice-Oriented Urban Education
2019’s Sources Conference draws on Atlanta’s rich and historical legacy within the civil rights movement. Like others before them, activists like Martin Luther King, Jr., Coretta Scott King, Lonnie King, Diane Nash and Bayard Rustin worked courageously to eliminate inequities and injustices that denied civil rights and liberties to communities of color.
