Hate is alive

A post found on a Facebook wall. If you saw this what would you do? If your kids knock on this neighbor’s door on Halloween will they get a treat?

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

We’re Back!

The Spokane African American Voice

The African American Voice is back to provide a place for communication and culture.  We will bring you not only the news and issues of the day but we will also connect you to the cultural context of our community and provide a place to talk about it.

We will be bringing to you information about local artists, writers, musicians, actors and sports figures. We will be covering business people and entrepreneurs. We will be talking about those who contribute to the social welfare of the community – social workers, educators, counselors – those serving your community. And we won’t forget our community icons past and present.

Remember, we do not speak for you. We are a place for you to speak out. We will only be as successful as your participation.

Under construction – watch for future developments.
