In honor of Black History Month the library has put out on display books that celebrate literature, art, politics, and women’s lives. A personal favorite of mine is the poetry of Langston Hughes.
This book display also complements the events the STC History Department has arranged. These events are held at the Rainbow Room starting at 7:00 pm, and they include:
| Feb. 1 |
“Jim Crow Sists on the Bench: The Desegregation of Texas College Footbal |
| Feb. 9 |
“Another Shade of Brown: Brown v. Board’s Effect on the Students in the RGV” |
| Feb. 17 |
“A Real War of Races: Rethinking African American Resistance to Racial Violence” |
| Feb. 24 |
“When Blacks were Latinos: Blacks in Texas from Esteban to the Buffalo Soldiers” |
Contributed by Esther Garcia, Library Specialist at Pecan Campus.
