BUILDING A NEW CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT TODAY:
HOW LYNDON LAROUCHE'S POLICIES CAN WIN

Speaker:Amelia Boynton Robinson

Civil Rights Heroine and Vice Chairman of the Schiller Institute

Amelia Boynton Robinson, author of "Through the Years" and "Bridge Across Jordan" has been called the "grandmother" of the voting rights movement. Already in the 1930's she and her husband, William Boynton, were registering hundreds of African-Americans to vote in Selma, Alabama. In March, 1965, Mrs. Boynton was in the forefront of the march from Selma to Montgomery, known later as "Bloody Sunday", where she was brutally beaten and left unconscious on the Edmond Pettus Bridge. Today she continues the fight against tyranny internationally, as Vice-Chairman of the Board of the Schiller Institute. She is also on the board of the Martin Luther King Center for Nonviolent Social Change, and was the 1990 recipient of the Martin Luther King Freedom Medal.
