--William Isom, Director, Black in Appalachia
--Adam Dickson, Community Leader and Supervisor, Langston Center in Johnson City
--Rita Lorraine Hubbard, Award Winning Educator and Children’s Author, Chattanooga
--Julia Daniel, Tri County African American Culture Museum and Mayme Carmichael School Organization, Oliver Springs
Lectures are free and open to the public. In-person at the East Tennessee History Center, 601 S Gay Street or online on Zoom & Facebook Live, advance registration is required for Zoom. Guests are invited to bring a “Brown Bag” lunch.
