1. “I Opposed John Roberts Because I Recalled Roger Taney”, by Wendell Griffen
2. Pyramid Art, Books, and Custom Framing To Host, “What to the Slave is the 4th of July?” Reading & Discussion
 Due to the recent Supreme Court decisions that nullified the use of affirmative action in college admissions, cancelled student loan debt relief, and enabled businesses to discriminate, July 4th should be a day on, not a day off. A day of action! Please join us on July 4, 2023 at 12 Noon (1001 Wright Avenue, Little Rock) for a reading and discussion of, “What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?” a speech delivered by Frederick Douglass on July 5, 1852, at Corinthian Hall in Rochester, New York, at a meeting organized by the Rochester Ladies’ Anti-Slavery Society. Guest orator: Reverend Wendell L. Griffen |

| To some, celebrations of American independence on July 4 are a reminder of the country’s hypocrisy on the matter of freedom, as slavery played a key role in the nation’s history; even today, America’s history of racism is still being written, while other forms of modern-day slavery persist in the U.S. and around the world. Douglass’ message — about America struggling to live up to the lofty goals it set for itself at the founding — continues to be relevant.-Olivia Waxman and David Blight, Time Magazine |
