Dear Visitor,
Tickets Still Available for BABJ's John Rogers Roast
The Birmingham Association of Black Journalists serves State Rep. John Rogers up on a platter to raise money for its scholarship fund.
BABJ hosts a roast this Friday to gather the community and laugh for a purpose: raising money to support the college education of emerging young journalists of color.
ROAST DETAILS
Birmingham's own nationally loved funny man, Roy Wood, Jr., dishes out John Rogers jokes and pokes with other community leaders at Birmingham's must-go-to event of the season.
Alabama leaders such as former Birmingham Mayor Richard Arrington, State Rep. Oliver Robinson, State Rep. Mary Moore and AL.com columnist John Archibald, along with other special guests, will highlight the follies and exciting memorable moments in the life of Rogers, one of the state's most influential political figures.
The event takes place this Friday, April 26, at The Harbert Center. The cocktail reception starts at 5:30 p.m. and the dinner/program will follow at 6:30 p.m.
Tickets are $60.00 per person and $1,000.00 for a table of eight. Buy tickets online at Eventbrite. All purchases are tax deductible.
