Sorry for the late notice, I just found this information that the Chapel Hill-Carrboro NAACP will be having their annual rally before the MLK service at First Baptist Church. (For the record, I have been looking for info about whether there would be a march. I wish there had been more publicity!)
The rally will start at 9 a.m. at the Franklin Street Post Office.
That will be followed with a march down Franklin Street at 10:15 a.m.
The march will end at the First Baptist Church on North Roberson Street at 10:30 a.m. where a worship service will be held.
The theme of the rally is environmental racism.
The group is calling for liberation of the Rogers Road community where the county’s landfill has been housed for more than thirty years.
