Anne McCarty Braden: American civil rights activist, journalist, and educator 

Louisville native Anne McCarty Braden turned her back on a promising career as a newspaperwoman to dedicate herself to fierce advocacy for racial and social justice for almost half a century.
Charged twice with sedition and arrested multiple times, Braden remained an outspoken writer and organizer locally until her death in 2006.
Dr. Catherine Fosl, professor emerita at UofL and co-founder of the UofL Anne Braden Institute for Social Justice Research, will examine how Braden’s message has helped to shape our community, and why it still resonates today.
