Join us for an enlightening and thought-provoking scholarly talk at the Anderson Brickler Gallery as we delve into the pivotal period of desegregation.

Our esteemed speakers, Ms. Althemese Barnes, a local historian and preservationist, and Mr. Harold Knowles, Esq., a noted Tallahassee attorney and one of the first Black students to attend desegregated Leon High School, will guide us through the tumultuous journey of dismantling racial segregation in education. Dive into the relentless fight against segregation. Discover how landmark court cases reshaped the educational landscape. Hear firsthand accounts from those who lived through desegregation. Witness the resilience, courage, and determination of students, teachers, and families.

Don’t miss this opportunity to explore the past, reflect on the present, and envision a more inclusive future. Doors will open at 2PM; we hope to see you there!
