To learn why personal archiving is important for Black History, come to a free screening of the film “Through a Lens Darkly” at 2:00 p.m. in the Great Hall. Following the screening, Director Thomas Allen Harris will speak about how Black family archives shed light on people, places, events, and stories that have rarely been told outside of the immediate circle of families and scholars.”
