DESCRIPTION:In honor of Black History Month\, join us for an evening celebrating the leaders and activists of Cincinnati's nineteenth century African-American community.

It will take place at Xavier University Room 100 in Logan Hall. \n\n\nDr. Christine Anderson of Xavier University will lead the discussion by highlighting a rediscovered document.
