After a fellowship time and a delicious meal catered by Walkers Cafe, Mrs. Sondra Turner Hightower gave a presentation on this year’s Black History Month theme of Resistance. Mrs. Hightower chose to begin her presentation with one of her own poems, entitled the Price of My Skin. down through the decades, she brought to our attention people, events, music, and sports, that are still instrumental in striving for freedom and equality. We are proud that Mrs. Hightower so graciously agreed to share her knowledge of Black History with us.
