Dr. Melba Pattillo-Beals

She began her career as a PBS and later NBC television news reporter. Dr. Beals has written several award-winning books including, “Warriors Don’t Cry”, "MARCH Forward Girl", and "I Will Not Fear.”

She has six adult children, one birth child and five adopted. She continues to give Webinars around the world on Equality and Self Love.

Dr. Beals will be joining us virtually due to health concerns, but she will speak and answer questions during the event

Annual Interfaith Celebration of the National Day of Prayer

Please join the Marin Interfaith Council on Wed. May 6th from 8-10 am at Congregation Kol Shofar (215 Blackfield Dr., Tiburon) for the 27th annual interfaith celebration of the National Day of Prayer. At this time in our nation, where each new day brings more distressing news as our government wages war against people living within our nation’s borders, and on countries far beyond, let us gather to bear witness to the light and love that our faith traditions share.

This year we will hear from Dr. Melba Patillo Beals, who put her life on the line along with eight other young people, to gain equal access to the education that she desired and was rightfully hers. Dr. Beals will share with us her story, her faith, and how she continues to be a promoter of justice and peace in our world.

New to this year's event will be the addition of music, provided by Marv Zauderer through his engaging way of teaching songs that all can sing. Come lift your voices together in love as our world desperately needs to hear them.
