Black History Month Celebrated at Herzing
Special to The Truth
Herzing University-Toledo will observe Black History Month
on Thursday, February 20 with a number of visual options:
4-5 pm Soul Food Cookoff—students and staff compete in this
annual friendly competition held in the Student Lounge.
5-7 pm BHM program—This program will include an interpretive
student dance, a reading of the winning BHM essay by the
student contest winner, and the presentation of the play
Bourbon at the Border, to celebrate the 50th
anniversary of “Freedom Summer.” Three of our students will
present the play, followed by an open discussion with the
cast members. The play follows the lives of two ordinary
people who joined hundreds of other Americans for a massive
voter registration drive in Mississippi in the summer of
1964.
During the program, a mini-service fair will be set up in
the library for students to browse, get questions answered,
and sign up for a variety of services, including free tax
prep. A yoga demonstration and class will be held from
6:30-7 pm.
We hope to see you on campus Thursday evening. All
events are free and open to the public.
