Overview
A series of arts and civil rights education programs will fill the Jackson community from September 27th to September 29th.
The free-to-the-public No Tears Project Jackson: Be Heard in 2024 events will include community concerts, a panel discussion, and youth education programs located at Myrlie’s Garden (part of the Medgar and Myrlie Evers Home National Monument property), Shady Grove Missionary Baptist Church, and at other sites in the city. Programs will address Jackson’s and Mississippi’s past and present in the American civil rights story, and how it relates to the experiences of other activists, like the Little Rock Nine and Dred and Harriett Scott.
