Black History Month Celebration--African American impact on education and literature In-Person
The Friends of the Westfield Memorial Library, in partnership with the Westfield Memorial Library and the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Association of Westfield, are celebrating Black History Month 2025 with an exhibition of portraits and with four discussions inspired by those portraits. Fourteen paintings, relating to the Black Experience, were chosen from the collection of Americans Who Tell the Truth (AWTT) and will be on display for the month of February. The portraits on display and programs will be held in the Meeting Room.
Professor Rebecca L. Williams will speak on the African American impact on education and literature, including Westfield's role in the Harlem Renaissance.
Rebecca L. Williams is a professor at Essex County College.
