95th Arrest Anniversary

  • The Scottsboro Boys Museum 428 West Willow Street Scottsboro, AL, 35768 United States (map)

The Scottsboro Boys Museum invites everyone to remember the arrests of the nine Scottsboro defendants–the event that sparked one of the most profound miscarriages of justice in the nation’s history. This program reflects on the Scottsboro nine’s lives and legacies as individuals and a collective. We will have a candle lighting ceremony in their honor. Members of non-profit Alabama Appleseed will also be joining us to provide a kay note address. This organization “confronts unjust systems through research, bridge building, and advocacy to create an Alabama that prioritizes justice and opportunity.” (Quote courtesy of alabamaappleseed.org)
