Thank you to all those who took part in or attended our Black History program in conjunction with Embry AME Church. There was a stimulating conversation by a panel of Lakelanders and guests. Those present received enlightening information on urban renewal from unique viewpoints.
Our young people had a spirited and well challenged test of their Lakeland History knowledge. They learned a great deal about their community. We hope to see you at next year’s program.
Beautiful, Maxine. Your grandparents would be so proud of you (and Abby, of course)!
Everybody is invited to my talk for Prof. Mary Seis’ class at U of M on 3/28 7 p.m. “A Voice from the Lakeland Diaspora: Root Sock, Restorative Justice and My Mother’s Letter.”
