Dr. Dipboye will discuss his new book, Authoritarianism in the American South: Beliefs that Led to Slavery and Civil War, 1606-1861.

This topic is particularly relevant to the events currently occurring in the U.S., and in other countries, where authoritarianism and nationalism is on the up-tick.  Those who attended the League’s Civil Rights trip to Montgomery and Birmingham will find this particularly interesting.

The program will be held at the Oak Ridge Unitarian Universalist Church (809 Oak Ridge Turnpike, Oak Ridge, TN 37830) and will begin with at 11:30 AM with lunch (catered) and socializing with our guest speaker. The presentation and time for Q&A will begin at noon and will end at 1:00 PM ET.

We hope that you will join us!
