Albany State University, a historically black college or university (HBCU), is preparing a three-day event in honor of Black History Month during the month of February. The events will be held Saturday, Feb. 7, Monday, Feb. 9, and Tuesday, Feb. 10, according to the school’s website.
“This will be a historic event for Albany. The community will have the opportunity to interact with an impressive lineup of presenters who are associated with human rights and civil rights,” said James L. Hill, a symposium coordinator who is also a professor of English at Albany.
The Georgia based HBCU hopes to “encourage community engagement and honor those dedicated to civil and human rights,” the school’s website says.
