On Thursday, December 10, 2009, UUSC will be honoring pioneering activist Mel King at our annual Rights Night. A crusader, educator, organizer, and entrepreneur, King has devoted his life to organizing and advocacy for anti-poverty and urban renewal causes.
King will be honored with UUSC’s Eleanor Roosevelt Human Rights Award for his commitment to social justice and human rights. Afterwards, stay for drinks and light refreshments, and join activists from across Boston’s many communities in conversation about carrying the legacy of King’s work forward.
Date and time: Thursday, December 10 (International Human Rights Day), at 7 p.m.
Location: Media Arts Center of Roxbury Community College, conveniently located across the street from the Roxbury Crossing T Stop. Free parking is also available.
All are welcome! The event is free, but RSVPs are recommended. RSVP by e-mailing rsvp@uusc.org or calling 617-301-4381.
