From the Roots of Resistance to the Frontlines of Change

Join us for an unprecedented journey that celebrates the heroes of yesterday, amplifies the voices of today, and empowers the changemakers of tomorrow.

The Social Justice Empowerment Experience is a transformative pilgrimage through Mississippi’s profound legacy of courage, resistance, and hope. Over four extraordinary days, we will celebrate Mississippi’s champions of justice, engage in meaningful dialogue with civil rights legends, and walk in the footsteps of heroes who changed the course of American history.

This immersive experience weaves together the threads of Mississippi’s complex story, from the halls of The Westin Jackson to the historic landmarks of the Mississippi Delta. You will break bread with movement veterans, stand where history was made, and discover how the past continues to shape our present fight for racial and economic justice.

Whether you are a longtime advocate, emerging leader, or simply someone who believes in the power of justice, this experience will challenge your perspective, expand your understanding, and connect you with a community committed to creating lasting change. Each moment is designed to inspire action, foster connection, and remind us that the fight for justice is not just history – it’s happening now!

Every ticket purchased and sponsorship secured contributes directly to the Mississippi Center for Justice’s ongoing work to advance racial and economic justice across our state. This isn’t just about remembering the past; it is about funding the future. Become a sponsor or purchase your ticket today to support this transformative experience and demonstrate your commitment to equity and justice.
