Come celebrate activism, community and our struggles for justice as the
Community Church of Boston awards the 2007 Sacco & Vanzetti award to City
Councillor Chuck Turner. Councillor Turner will be honored for his
decades-long service to the community and ongoing activism, and will

Strategies for the 21st Century."

Speakers at the event this year will also include City Councilor Felix
Arroyo; Executive Director of METCO, Jean McGuire; community organizer for
over 55 years, elected politician, and former Adjunct Professor at MIT, Mel
King; musician, songwriter, and faculty member at Berklee College of Music,

The event is also a fundraiser for the Community Church of Boston. Tickets
are available for $20.00, $5.00 for youth and seniors. No one will be
turned away for lack of funds. All are welcome! This event
is co-sponsored by the Louis D. Brown Peace Institute and Safety Net.

As we commemorate the injustice afforded Sacco and Vanzetti 80 years ago we
lift up the work and struggle of those who are fighting today for justice
to reach all people.
