Think there’s an absence of Martin Luther King Day/Black History Month events in the Valley? Wrong you are, my friend. So far, there’s been a reenactment of Dr. King’s march on Washington; a locally produced play chronicling the life of Bessie Coleman, America’s first African-American female pilot; a freestyle music workshop; and numerous lectures/workshops about contemporary African-American issues. Whew!
To top off these celebrations galore, ASU’s S.T.A.R.S. Association will host a not-to-be-missed Soul Food Festival featuring good peeps and good eats on the picturesque grounds of Hayden Lawn.
Wed., Feb. 11, 12-2 p.m., 2009
Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $17,250 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
