About this event
Join us for another segment of the African Landing Commemoration Symposium. The William Tucker 1624 Society presents a conversation with former USA Today journalists Nichelle Smith, Deborah Barfield Berry, and Jarrad Henderson from USA Today’s 1619: Searching for Answers series. They will discuss their journey to Angola with descendant Dr. Wanda Tucker in 2019. Moderator Eola Dance, VA250 Senior Advisor, will lead a discussion exploring where is home, the pursuit of identity, how their work on history and truth changed their lives and their work, and why these stories are important to tell and share as part of our nation’s history. The event is free and open to the public. SPACE IS LIMITED and registration is requested. Registered guests will be seated first.
