Melancon to Deliver Holtzclaw Lecture
We hope you can join us for the next talk in our Holtzclaw Lecture Series. Dr. Kristi Melancon, professor of English at Mississippi College, will be speaking with us about her work on race, gender and the Black Press on Thursday, October 18th as part of Homecoming Week festivities on campus. Dr. Melancon's work examines representations of identity in the New Orleans Tribune, the nation's first Black daily newspaper.

The Holtzclaw Institute is a new initiative from the Humanities Department at Hinds Community College-Utica designed to increase public awareness of the life and legacy of William H. Holtzclaw, an important Black educator in the Jim Crow south. As part of a National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) grant, we aim to develop new teaching modules related to Holtzclaw and his role in southern Black education.
