I had the great pleasure of hangin’ out with these great people and listening to Merry Quackenbush, Sonie Joi Ruffin, and Glenn North discuss key pieces of work telling the story of the Civil Rights movement in Kansas City. The discussion by Sonie and the poem by Glenn really tugged at the heart and gave better clarity than any history book. The exhibit “History & Hope: Celebrating the Civil Rights Movement” will be on view until May 1st at the Nelson.
