Despite regular death threats and a thwarted plot to end his life (originating in Kentucky), 2009's Bill of Rights Dinner featured guest, Morris Dees, has fought for civil rights for the unheard for over thirty years.
Mr. Dees is the Co-Founder and Chief Trial Counsel of the Southern Poverty Law Center, an organization that throughout its history has worked to make the nation's Constitutional ideals a reality.
The SPLC legal department fights all forms of discrimination and works to protect society's most vulnerable members, handling innovative cases that few lawyers are willing to take. Over three decades, it has achieved significant legal victories, including landmark Supreme Court decisions and crushing jury verdicts against hate groups.
Please join us on Thursday, October 1st at the Hyatt Regency Louisville, as this civil rights hero comes to share his thoughts on hate groups in Kentucky and across the nation. Buy your tickets today online at http://action.aclu.org/site/R?i=qvN8F2RMTy5hWxUrWVHYVQ..
Sincerely,
ACLU of Kentucky
