Join Kyleene Rooks to learn about the history of Southeast Raleigh and how a community of African American residents successfully advocated for their rights to access maintained green spaces, better water quality, and protections from their municipality. Learn about who and what inspired the creation of the Norman and Betty Camp Education Center and how the legacy of these great advocates is still apparent in work performed throughout the city by their partners.
Join us in the SECU Daily Planet Theater or watch the livestream on YouTube Live.
