Event Details

Dovey Johnson Roundtree was an African American civil rights attorney seeking justice for women and people of color. Roundtree won a 1955 landmark bus desegregation case that would help to dismantle the practice of "separate but equal" and shatter Jim Crow laws. Later, she became one of the first ordained female ministers in the African Methodist Episcopal Church. Mighty Justice is her story.

Through Their Eyes Book Club meets on the second Wednesday of the each month.
