The Annual Durr Lecture

The annual Clifford and Virginia Durr Lecture brings Martha Prescod Norman Noonan to Montgomery. She presents on her book Hands on the Freedom Plow at ASU’s Ralph D. Abernathy Hall Auditorium on Friday, April 28 at 4:30pm. A remarkable woman, Norman Noonan left her Detroit home in 1963 to help register voters as a SNCC volunteer in the South. Testimonies about her contributions and those of fifty plus other women—young, old, Black and White— are gathered in the book. The NewSouth Bookstore will be on site at the program selling copies of the book, which are available for signing.
