Black Wide-Awake is for you, and the highlight of my February is always the opportunity Wilson County Public Library extends to share my work with a live audience of home folk.

This year I’ll not only be telling the story of the African-American church in Wilson County, but also offering a long-overdue workshop on African-American genealogy, offering tips for breaking down those brick walls we all struggle with.

Mark your calendars — I can’t wait to see you!
