"Would America have been America without her Negro People?" - Dr. W.E.B. DuBois (1903)
Dear friends,
For the past two weeks, just as she did for ten months prior to the election of President Barack Obama, the legendary WDAS FM radio personality Patty Jackson of Philadelphia has been vigorously inviting folks to learn, understand, and, consequently, appreciate the historical experiences of African American people and how those experiences are enmeshed in the total social fabric of what makes American culture. Through the Tavis Smiley-sponsored touring museum called America I Am, we all can do just that. The exhibit will be housed in Philly through much of the Spring. Therefore, anyone who plans on travelling that way (Philly), over the next five months, can check it out. Please click on the link below to find out more.
