DESCRIPTION:Working Together to Reduce Racism\n10th Anniversary Tribute to \nJames Byrd 
 Jr. of Jasper, Texas \n\nIn 1998, James Byrd Jr., a father of three from 
 Jasper, Texas, was murdered by three white supremacists when they chained 
 him to their truck and dragged him three miles to his death. Three young 
 men were convicted of the crime. It marked the first time in Texas history 
 that white men were convicted of murdering a black man. Sadly this 
 hate-crime, one of the most heinous in recent memory, reminded us that the 
 fight against prejudice and hate is far from being won. \n\n\nPlease join 
 us at this tribute in commemoration of James Byrd Jr.. The event is 
 sponsored by The James Byrd Jr. Racism Oral History Project, a project of 
 the Byrd Foundation for Racial Healing, and will feature performances by 
 Linda Tillery and the Cultural Heritage Choir, and Bill Spooner.
