To the Churches in the Madison Area,
Springs of Hope Fellowship will be hosting a panel discussion with Dr. Rev. Alex Gee and others on Sunday, April 3, at 5:00 p.m. It will consist of viewing the movie “Selma” followed by a panel discussion.
“Selma” was chosen as one way of providing a background of the history of the civil rights movement and how we have gotten to where we are presently. The movie (rated PG-13, containing profanity) will act as a springboard into the panel discussion on racial disparities.
As stated in Our Madison Plan: Mobilizing Madison for Change developed by the Justified Anger Initiative, “Wisconsin routinely ranks as the worst state in the nation for social, economic, educational and health disparities among African American children and families.”
We are hoping this meeting will provide an opportunity for the faith communities of Madison to become informed and possibly involved in helping alleviate these disparities. As members of the faith community in the Madison area, please come and join us as we learn more together. Refreshments and snacks will be served. No child care will be provided.
