Race Symposium at UNCG

Hello All!!!

I know I have been away, but with school starting and the holiday weekend I needed a break to get it all together. But now that I have officially settled into the school/work routine I am back and better than ever.
As a Junior at The University of North Carolina at Greensboro, I feel that I know a little bit about interesting things that go on in and around the Greensboro area. With that being said, as I was checking the university website (yes, I do this often...geek?? maybe)I came across an excellent opportunity for anyone who is interested in Greensboro's history on race. UNCG is offering a two day symposium (Sept 19-20) in Weatherspoon Art Museum that will focus on exploring race and history. The symposium is free to the public with parking also being free, and will offer panel discussion, open forums, and a documentary on a real FBI informant from Greensboro who infiltrated the KKK. I think this symposium will be a great learning experience for everyone no matter what race. Also from September 7th through December 21, the Weatherspoon Art Museum will be host an exhibit called; The 1960s: Decade of Change. This exhibit will showcase this pivotal decade in American history through all sorts of artistic mediums.
So there you have it two events to look forward to and hopefully I will see some of you sippers there.

Peace,

The Intellect
