A bus ride 53 years ago thrust Freedom Riders Carol Ruth Silver and Claude Liggins into the center of the civil rights movement and eventually the history books. A plane ride in January will bring them to Chandler where their first-hand accounts of their fight for equality is as important today as it was in 1961. Silver and Liggins will participate in a multi-media panel discussion, The Road to Freedom, at 7 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 10, at the Chandler Center for the Arts. For more information or to purchase tickets please visit evjcc.org, call 480-897-0588 or visit the Chandler Center for the Arts box office.
