Wilmington Democrats

Delaware Democrats, say hello to your new State Party leadership team!

06/07/2025

This Wednesday! Come join Wilmington Democrats for a screening of Selma, with an introduction by Prof. Leland Ware. The story of Selma and the risks taken by our elders for full citizenship in America speaks to us still. While we are living through a government trying to strip away as much of the rights and justice of democracy, it is still our work to make sure that our democracy holds. For all of us.

See you Wednesday!

Join us Wednesday and hear Professor Leland Ware introduce the movie of the night -- and explain in which ways civil right issues have become very relevant today. Event is FREE to attend!
