Thoreau: Civil Rights and Civil Disobedience

Thursday, May 8 @ 1:00 pm

Free

The Medford Council on Aging invites seniors to join Concord public historian Richard Smith as he tells the story of Henry David Thoreau’s civil disobedience, the reasons behind it, and the consequences of his actions. Why are Thoreau’s words more powerful and influential now than they were in 1849? And can civil disobedience effect true social change? Reserve your seat by calling the Senior Center at 781-396-6010. Funded in part by a Medford Arts Council grant.
