Georgia Regents University celebrates Black History Month

In honor of Black History Month, Georgia Regents University will host various events inspired by our country’s African-American heritage.

 This year’s theme, “A Century of Black Life, History and Culture,” speaks of an overview of the past century in which there has been a transformation in our society’s collective understanding of the role of African-Americans in this nation’s history.

This month’s events include  a panel discussion on the historic landmark case Brown v. Board of Education and musical presentation by the James Brown Academy of Musik Pupils.

  • The article said, “For a complete list of GRU’s Black History Month activities, visit gru.edu/blackhistory .” I went there, and there is a history of how Black History Month came to be — but there is no “complete list” nor even an incomplete one. What gives?
