Please join us for a celebration of the 25th anniversary edition of Mab Segrest's landmark book, Memoir of a Race Traitor, a chronicle of life at the forefront of antiracist activism. Segrest will be joined by local activists Mandy Carter, Kendra R. Johnson, and Grace Nichols for a discussion of their work in queer movements over the past 25 years and the challenges to those movements today from the Right. The New Press will be reissuing this with a new introduction and afterword by Segrest. Segrest's papers are held by the Sallie Bingham Center, as well as the records of Southerners on New Ground, which Segrest and Carter co-founded. RSVP and share on Facebook.
