Through performance and recollection this experience leading to school desegregation in Riverside will come alive. Drive next to Evergreen Memorial Historic Cemetery for an expressive performance evoking the civil rights leaders buried in the cemetery. Conclude the tour at the Civil Rights Institute of Inland Southern California for a panel discussion and book giveaway. Light refreshments available at the final stop on the tour on a first-come first-served basis. Tour is free. Supported by California Humanities.
