9/22/2016 at 6:30 PM – Talks at the Schomburg: When Sugar Hill Was Sweet: A Woman’s Work is Never Done – This engaging discussion will pay tribute to the dynamic women of 409 and 555 Edgecombe, some of whom history has been relegated to the background, eclipsed by the famous men they married.

Rosemari Mealy, J.D., Ph.D. will be in conversation with Tina Campt, Ph.D. A pop-up exhibition will be featured.
