"I started reflecting on #Freedom... I am swimming in Spelman's Archives... I knew I was going to paint an ancestor." <- @Spelman_College Professor #CharmaineMinniefield discusses the importance of African-American history at the #HerndonHome Museum in honor of #AdrienneMcNeilHerndon, who she created a mural of that was unveiled today on the @AtlantaBeltLine Westside Trail. I was so enthused for my sixth grade daughter to hear the history of Adrienne Herndon, a pioneer in creating spaces for Black people to experience the arts in #Atlanta in the 1800s and 1900s & who was the first Black woman professor (teaching drama) at Atlanta University preceding W.E.B. DuBois by 2 years. #DigMyGig #BlackHistory #SpelmanStrong #WomenLead #ArtsMove #WomensHistory @BlackAngelATL #BlackGirlMagic #HBCUPride #OldAtlanta #SpelmanCollege #HometownLove #ParentingWin #ATLGirl #Gratitude (at The Herndon Home Museum)
