"Join the Milwaukee Public Library and America's Black Holocaust Museum (ABHM) as we partner to discuss Dr. James Cameron's 1982 memoir, A Time of Terror, and showcase a collection of Dr. Cameron's self-published writings. Dr. James Cameron (1914-2006) was an early civil rights pioneer, self-taught public historian, and author of dozens of essays on issues in American and African American history and contemporary life. Cameron’s most well known written work is his memoir, A Time of Terror: A Survivor’s Story, now in its 3rd edition. In 1988 he founded America’s Black Holocaust Museum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee awarded Cameron an honorary Doctor of Humanities degree in 1999 for a lifetime of work exhibiting materials of uncommon merit, moral and intellectual value to the city and state.
