Mrs. Reeves was a 1935 graduate of William Penn!To commemorate Black History Month 2024, the Appell Center has collaborated with four prominent York County community members to curate an exclusive film series. Each feature portrays the struggles, triumphs and challenges faced by historical individuals and in significant periods of time. They are stories that simply must be told and retold…stories that continue to influence those that experience them.
