The African American History Calendar

Starting January 1, 2012 4comculture.com will have a daily post on Black History from this calendar. This will be a good place for teachers and students to build their knowledge of African American contributions in the sciences, arts, politics, religion and philosophy.

Miss Devine

Cousins James Ransom and Cherie Johnson recall their fearsome Sunday school teacher, Miss Lizzie Devine, the only woman who had more power than their grandmother. Set in the small Florida town of the cousins’ memories, this animation resounds with the joy of sharing stories with family.

Lawrence A Burnley: Greetings Sisters and Brothers

I’m writing to make you aware of a wonderful opportunity to engage African American history and the experiences of African American women through the artistic gifts of actress Adilah Barnes. Ms. Barnes is bringing her One-Woman Show I Am That I Am: Woman, Black to the Cowles Auditorium at Whitworth on October 26th at 7:00 pm.  Please circle this date on your calendars. You don’t want to miss this!  Download Poster   ACAF Barnes poster2
