Join us Friday for this special event:

Confronting Our History and Working Towards a Just Society
Prof. Anthony Bogues

Friday, October 23, 2015
3:00 p.m.
McCormack Family Theater
70 Brown Street

Oftentimes we tend to think of history and tradition only as a source of information, having no significant impact on shaping the present day. This talk will discuss the relationship between the past and the present and how we may build a just society which recognizes the traditions of the past while creating a more humane and just form of living today.
 

Join us at the Center following the talk

5:00-6:00 PM 
94 Waterman Street

We invite you to the Center’s recently renovated 19th century house for coffee and tea following the talk.   While you’re at the Center you can view the exhibition in our gallery, A Peculiar Aesthetic, which examines representations of slavery and slave life through art, a stunning glass wall art piece Rising to Freedom, and a symbolic representation of a slave's garden.
