In , Tarabu Betserai Kirkland amplifies the story of his late mother, Mamie Lang Kirkland, who fled Mississippi as a child in 1908 to escape lynchings (vowing never to return) and returns to confront the painful part of her history as a 108-year-old woman.
The Q&A is followed by a 5 p.m. Dining and discussion with the director at Mission & Ministry.
This program is co-sponsored by the Center for Women & Gender Equity, CCIE Sub-committee on Gender Equity and Women’s History, Mission & Ministry, and Dean of Students.
