Lusby, MD – As an author, Daryl Davis’ nonfiction book, Klan-Destine Relationships, provides a first-person account of an African-American man’s journey into the mindset of the Ku Klux Klan. His true-life stories of meeting with Klan leaders, and attending Klan rallies are both suspenseful and revealing. The book outlines Daryl’s efforts to bridge stark racial divides through friendship and engagement. It also served as inspiration for a new film documentary released in 2016 called Accidental Courtesy.
Today, Daryl Davis travels the country giving inspiring lectures based on his experiences. His efforts in the area of race relations have earned national coverage from NBC News, USA Today, Business Insider, National Geographic and many others.

The event is presented by the Calvert County Chamber of Commerce, the Southern Maryland Minority Chamber and Calvert County Public Schools. The event is sponsored by Dominion.
