This year marks the 60th anniversary of the American Civil Liberties Union of Oklahoma. Over six decades, the ACLU of Oklahoma has worked tirelessly in the courts, the legislature, and communities across the state to expand the constitutional protections afforded to all Oklahomans, regardless of background or ideology. And that work continues today.
Join us this November as we commemorate 60 years in defense of civil liberties. Sponsorships and tickets are now available! action.aclu.org/event/ok-lib…
