Civil Rights Era to the Present
April 12, 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
The fourth program in The Other Book series, Civil Rights Era to the Present, will be held on April 12, 2025, from 10:00 a.m. to noon. Each program in this series has been held at a different location, and this one will be at The Cotton Club, 837 SE 7th Avenue, Gainesville, FL 32601.
Sponsored by the Alachua County Community Remembrance Project (ACCRP), the series was developed to help fill some of the gap left in Florida’s public education. This educational opportunity is especially valuable for those writing about history, inequity, and/or cross-cultural relationships within our country.
Several WAG members have said they benefited from one or more of the first three programs:
- Dispelling the Myths: Pre-Colonial Africa, held in January at the Harn Art Museum
- Enslavement in Alachua County, held in February at the Haile Homestead
- Jim Crow in Alachua County, held in March at the Alachua County Administration Building
Registering for the April program is suggested but is not required. All are invited to attend. The courses are offered free, but donations are appreciated.
