When William O. Douglas retired from the U.S. Supreme Court in 1975, he has served longer than any other justice in the court's history and helped decide some of the most important cases in the history of the nation, including Brown v. Board of Education (1954) which struck down segregation in public schools. On Sunday, May 11th, the Journey Museum in Rapid City will show scenes from "Impeach Justice Douglas!" as part of a program marking the 60th anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education and the 50th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act. The program, "Liberty and Justice for Me and Thee," also includes a panel discussion moderated by Judge Jeffrey L. Viken, U.S. District Court, District of South Dakota with attorneys Charles Abourezk and Alicia Garcia. Graham Thatcher, the Artistic Director and primary performer for Periaktos Productions, and Anna Marie Thatcher, Managing Producer for Periaktos Productions, joined the program to discuss the movie.
