Fearrington Havurah will celebrate Black History Month with a leading civil rights attorney, Leslie Winner, speaking at The Gathering Place at 7 pm on February 21. Leslie argued a case to ensure fair representation of black communities in the North Carolina legislature. After winning the case in the North Carolina courts, that decision was later upheld by the US Supreme Court. She will share her passion and experiences for civil rights laws, which continue to be challenged, and her thoughts about what we need to do to continue to protect voting rights.
