The Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at The University of Alabama in Huntsville is excited to once again host its 2023 Black History Month Luncheon on Wednesday, February 8, 2023 in the Student Services Building, room 112.

Each year, the Association for the Study of African American Life and History sets a theme for Black History Month. These themes echo the shift in African American perspectives on themselves, the influence of social movements, and the community’s ambitions. This year’s theme, “Black Resistance,” encompasses how African Americans have resisted all forms of oppression. Resistance has taken many forms over the years, including armed resistance, voluntary emigration (Liberia), nonviolent protests, politics, education, and financial institutions, to name but a few. The state of Alabama has historical and ongoing efforts related to Black Resistance, and the ODEI has invited keynote speaker Mayor Steven L. Reed, City of Montgomery, to discuss those efforts. Mayor Reed will present a keynote address will explore the historical importance of Black Resistance within Alabama and inform us how Black Resistance takes shape today within the state.

This event is free to all UAH students, staff, and faculty. General admission is open to the Greater Huntsville community for a minimum donation of $15 to further support the Dave McGlathery Trailblazer Scholarship Fund.

Please note that space is limited!

Having opened in 1988 and still playing today as the longest-running show in Chicago history, Too Much Light Makes The Baby Go Blind is an ensemble experiment in presenting “30 Plays in 60 Minutes.” Each two-minutes or less play is performed in random order with an interactive audience. An onstage 60-minute timer keeps everyone honest. It’s like a new show every night.

Produced by arrangement with Playscripts, Inc.

Recommended for adults. Mature language and a subject matter.

Can the Littles rescue her in time, or will the Queen’s vanity reign supreme? Find out in this new twist on a classic about kindness, community, and the true meaning of beauty.
