[Histmaj] Quintard Taylor Memorial: A Celebration of Life and Commemoration of Black History

[HISTORY UNDERGRADUATE ADVISORS via Histmaj]

Dear History Community,

I write to share information with you about a public memorial to celebrate the life of our dear colleague, Quintard Taylor, and to commemorate the centennial of Black History Month. BlackPast is the lead group organizing the event, and it is doing so in collaboration with the Department of History as well as many other organizations. I am grateful to BlackPast's leadership and everyone involved for their efforts to honor Quintard's memory and celebrate Black history.

The memorial will take place on Saturday, February 7 at New Beginnings Christian Fellowship in Kent beginning at 1:30 pm. Information can be found in the attached flyer.

All are welcome! My understanding is that in addition to the events listed in the flyer, there will be separate arts and crafts events for children during the celebration of life tribute program.

Please consider attending, and many thanks to those in the departement who have been involved, and those who will soon be involved, in the planning of this important event!

Best, Adam
