Inheriting the Legacy and Vision of Frederick Douglass

On the morning after the concert, a panel discussion on "Inheriting the Legacy and Vision of Frederick Douglass" will be held in Calvary Chapel, 10:30 a.m., Friday, Feb. 21. Professors Diane Vincent, Marc Malandra and Melissa Schubert join Ruth Naomi Floyd, an artist and educator whose new body of compositions, Frederick Douglass Jazz Works, musically considers the speeches and writings of the nineteenth-century abolitionist, orator, writer and statesman. Faculty from the Humanities and Social Sciences will join Ms. Floyd to consider together ways that Douglass's voice continues to guide and challenge both the church and the university in their relationships to the progress of human liberty. Note that this panel discussion is offered as a free breakout session of SCORR. All are welcome.
