Step into the inspiring and powerful world of Septima Clark, the unsung heroine of the Civil Rights Movement, in PURE Theatre’s riveting production, Septima. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. hailed her as “the Mother of the Movement,” and her remarkable contributions to education and activism were instrumental in changing the course of American history.

Through the Citizenship Schools she pioneered, Septima Clark taught thousands of Black Southerners to read and write, empowering them to pass the oppressive literacy tests of the era and secure their right to vote. Her tireless efforts resulted in over two million Americans registering to vote, a monumental step towards equality and justice.

Today, as our democracy faces unprecedented challenges, Septima’s story resonates more than ever. Her legacy of courage and determination offers a beacon of hope and a call to action, urging us to preserve and promote the ideals our nation was founded upon.
