The SC Progressive Network applauds our membership liaison Dr. Sarah Keeling for the much-deserved recognition of her social justice work by the University of South Carolina. She was among four honored with the 2018 MLK Social Justice Award.

Sarah is a graduate of the Modjeska Simkins School for Human Rights (a Network project), and was elected to the Network’s executive committee at our fall retreat. She helped lead the recent tour of the State House monuments, featured in this Columbia’s Free Times story, and is working on expanding that project.

Sarah Keeling puts the African American monument into context on a recent tour reinterpreting some of the monuments on the State House grounds. See more photos of the tour in our photo album.
