On behalf of the entire ACLU of Colorado Board and Staff, we would like to send a warm “thank you” to all of our attendees and sponsors for making the annual Bill of Rights dinner a complete success! We had a wonderful time and encourage you to join us in 2017 if you couldn’t make it this year.
We had a wonderful evening of celebrating civil rights and civil liberties, honoring our awardees Jessie Ulibarri, Gail Johnson and John Parvensky, and hearing an inspiring talk from our keynote speaker, Dale Ho (Director of the ACLU’s Voting Rights Project).
James Fisher, an ACLU client and partner in ending debtors’ prisons in Colorado, spoke passionately about the consequences of and need to reform our criminal justice system.
Take a look at some fun pictures from the celebration on our Flickr page!
