Norman Bill of Rights Project a Success

Last spring a group of civil rights activists in Norman started a project to place large bronze plaques of the Bill of Rights in Norman's two public high schools.

The Oklahoma Chapter of Americans United sponsored the project and served as treasurer.  We raised $10,000.  The plaques been delivered to the high schools for them to mount in a prominent place at each school.

A dedication ceremony has been planned for "Constitution Day" on September 18th. Special thanks to Dr. Charles Wesner for the art work that brought the text and the statue of liberty into relief.

The plaques are cast in bronze with green patina.   4 feet tall, 3 feet wide, 250 lbs. each
