Join Adam Parker and Cleveland Sellers, Jr. for the launch of Parker’s biography on Sellers, Outside Agitator. Additional guests will discuss the history of the freedom movement, the seminal 1968 Orangeburg Massacre, and current challenges facing activists today. Parker’s incisive biography details a proud black man who refuses to be defeated, and whose tumultuous life story exemplifies America’s ongoing fight for civil rights. Tickets are $5 CLS members, $10 nonmembers. To purchase tickets, call 843-723-9912 or click here.

Patrons will also get the chance to view Mark Stetler’s photographic portraits of Sellers, meet the staff of Hub City Press, and hear from the civil rights activist himself.
