[Henry Noble]

Black History Month Celebration
A Proud Legacy of Resistance to War
Saturday, February 22, 7:30 pm
With the drum beat of war banging loudly, we know that it is youth of color 
who will be on the frontlines in the military. Come to this exciting forum 
and keep alive the history of African American defiance that stretches from 
C.L.R. James in World War II, to the Black Panthers and Martin Luther King 
Jr. during the Vietnam War, and to Mumia Abu-Jamal and the Black Radical 
Congress today.
