Join us for an insightful conversation with Linda Simmons-Henry, author of Culture Town: Life in Raleigh's African American Communities. Held in person in the socially distanced SECU Auditorium and also available virtually, the talk covers the character of African American neighborhoods in the capital city as captured through oral histories, photography, and architectural plans. Simmons-Henry discusses eight Raleigh neighborhoods—Method, Oberlin, Nazareth, Fourth Ward, College Park, Idlewild, Smoky Holly, and East Raleigh-Chavis.
The conversation is moderated by Dr. Everett B. Ward, former member of the Raleigh Historical Development Commission and the 35th General President of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., the nation’s first African American intercollegiate Greek-lettered fraternity.
Co-sponsored by Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., Phi Lambda Chapter
