CMEC Council

Join us for a thought-provoking Author Talk with Dr. Charles Chavis at Stony Run Friends Meeting. Co-sponsored by Stony Run & Homewood Friends Meetings, and the Lillie Carroll Jackson Civil Rights Museum, this literary event promises to be both informative and insightful.

Dr. Charles Chavis, Assistant Professor of History and Conflict Analysis and Resolution at George Mason University, has written the definitive account of the lynching of 22-year-old Matthew Williams in Maryland in 1931. He meticulously explores the subsequent investigation of Mr. Williams’s murder and the legacy of “modern-day lynchings.

This is a FREE event. Reserve your spot. Option to pre-purchase your book here on Eventbrite with your FREE ticket. Onsite book sales will also be available.

Child care is available if requested by 3:00 pm on Wednesday, June 21st by emailing [email protected]
