stLouISTCommunity members are invited to a public symposium highlighting progressive social movements in 1960s–70s St. Louis. Symposium marks the publication of “Left in the Midwest: St. Louis Progressive Activism in the 1960s and 1970s,” an anthology exploring organizing initiatives including the Black freedom struggle, lesbian and gay liberation, the peace movement, environmental and feminist activism, and beyond. Held at the former Berea Presbyterian Church (now SLU’s Il Monastero), a hub for 1960s civil rights organizing. The event offers panels featuring volume chapter authors plus four noted organizers active in the era. Come for part or all. Free off-street parking; reception and author book-signing follow.
