About this Event

Join us to hear local author Martha Bireda discuss her memoir, Reflections of a Colored Girl: A Journey of Resilience and Triumph. This book narrates her personal life story and also serves as a beacon of hope and resilience in the face of adversity. Transcending the boundaries of a traditional memoir, it offers readers a deep, historical context wrapped around the lived experiences of a woman who has been called by many names: colored, negro, Black, African American, and person of color. Dr. Bireda, with her profound wisdom, brings forth a story that echoes the essence of survival, excellence, and unyielding courage.

Martha R. Bireda, Ph.D. is Director of the Blanchard House Museum of African American History and Culture, located in Punta Gorda, Florida. For over 30 years, Dr. Bireda has consulted, lectured, and written about social issues related to race, gender, class, power, and culture. She is the author of over 17 books. Dr. Bireda is also a Florida Humanities Scholar.
