Dr. Robert Dipboye, Professor Emeritus, University of Central Florida, will discuss his new book, Authoritarianism in the American South: Beliefs that Led to Slavery and Civil War, 1606-1861.

This topic is particularly relevant to the events currently occurring in the U.S. and other countries where authoritarianism and nationalism are on the up-tick.  Those who attended the Civil Rights trip to Montgomery and Birmingham will find this program of particular interest.

The program will be held at the Oak Ridge Unitarian Universalist Church and will begin at 11:30 AM with lunch (catered) and socializing with our guest speaker.  The presentation and time for Q&A will begin at noon and will end at 1:00 PM.
