Please join the Chapel Hill-Carrboro NAACP for its first-ever Defenders of Civil Rights brunch on Saturday, May 17, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Blue Hill Event Center in Chapel Hill.

The brunch will support the branch’s Freedom Fund, which provides college scholarships to deserving students, and will honor four of our community’s Defenders of Civil Rights:

Gene Nichol, Boyd C. Tinsley Distinguished Professor at the UNC School of Law, will deliver the keynote address.
