I was honored to serve as moderator for the wonderful and engaging panel discussion on Medgar Evers on Tuesday, July 1, 2025, at the Natchez Museum of African American History and Culture. The program was presented by the Natchez Branch of the NAACP in collaboration with the Natchez Business and Civic League, the museum, and Visit Natchez. About 70 people turned out for the event.
