Hello Again!

It has been  awhile since I posted a new blog entry because April has turned out to be as busy March.  So far this month we have had the Creative Arts Festival, the Robert Clark Symposium, Fannie Lou Hamer Fifth Annual Humanitarian Awards and a lecture series presentation on the declining presence of African American men in colleges and universities.  Women For Progress launched its revised, updated cookbook this month and we will have a general meeting of Women For Progress and SANKOFA Reading Group this April. Tomorrow, Wednesday April 20, 2011 there will be a panel discussion at Jim Hill High School on Youth Power in the Freedom Rides and later that afternoon at 3:00 pm a Meet & Greet Reception to honor Jackson's Freedom Riders at the COFO Civil Rights Education Complex.  On Thursday, April 21, 2011 there will be a panel discussion  commemorating the 1961 Freedom Rides.
