About this event

Little Shop of Stories & Georgia Center for the Book is excited and honored to host civil rights icon Ambassador Andrew Young and his daughter, Paula Young Shelton! They will discuss their new book, JUST LIKE JESSE OWENS - a rich oral history about a special day in Andrew's childhood that forever changed him. This story of race relations in the 1930s South is soon a classic picture book!

Join us at Holy Trinity Episcopal Church on Wednesday, Sept 28th at 5 pm!
