The Sisters of Loretto, as part of their 200th jubilee, are hosting a public conversation with civil rights leaders Prof. Vincent Harding and Prof. Angela Davis about the connection between spirit and struggle.
The event is slated for 7 p.m. Saturday at the Colorado Heights Theater, 3001 S. Federal Blvd.
Davis is an icon of the fight for social justice who made the FBI’s “Ten Most Wanted List” and spent 16 months in jail and on trial. Harding, author and activist, was negotiator in the southern Freedom Movement and later invited by Coretta Scott King to help her develop the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Center in Atlanta. He co-founded The Veterans of Hope Project for the study of religion, culture and democracy. He retired as a professor of religion and social transformation at Iliff School of Theology in 2004.
Admission is $9. Proceeds from the event will go to the nonprofit work of Davis and Harding.
