Howard Thurman Lecture Series
The Howard Thurman Lecture Series is part of the Howard Thurman Program at Stetson University, which was established in 1996 in partnership with New Birth Inc., a national board of African-American leaders headed by the Rev. Jefferson Rogers. Through the program, Stetson has worked to extend the legacy of Daytona Beach native Howard Thurman, who led the leaders of the American civil rights movement. The program's overall goal is to integrate the work of scholars with community leaders to find solutions to social, religious and ethnic problems. The Howard Thurman Lecture Series features world-class speakers who were leaders in the civil rights movements or are activists, educators, authors or historians working on similar issues today.
