George Henry White Day
The Phoenix Historical Society - January 26, 2013

From the Program (Documentary Film and Panel Discussion)

"His words shook the entire nation, prophetically declaring that Black Americans would rise again from the oppression of segregation and disenfranchisement, yet George Henry White's story remained lost to generations of North Carolinians for a century after he left Congress. Today, an exhibit and screening of a new documentary film on the life and legacy of George Henry White (1851-1915) will take place followed by a panel discussion of noted historians discussing the legacy of GHW and what his life means today."
 





Ms. Kate Tsubata (Lightsmith Productions), a professional journalist who served as the project manager and producer of the documentary will introduce the documentary in Tarboro and participate in the discussion of George White's life and legacy.
