December 3
Join virtually for a special cross school and community event funded by the PTSA, this Thursday December 3 from 2-3 pm. Eastlake’s Black Student Union and 11th grade team presents Delbert Richardson’s award winning American History Traveling Museum: Unspoken Truths.
About the Museum: “The founder of The Unspoken Truths has passionately collected and amassed an admirable assortment of artifacts that symbolizes the African experience in the Americas and Europe. They are joyful relics of family moments, and everyday products invented or patented by African Americans – the ironing board, cell phone technology, golf tees, and a pencil sharpener. They are also the crude reminders of a painful past: A runaway slave collar – circa 1800. Branding irons. Shackles. A shotgun. All are equally displayed in The Unspoken Truths African American Museum.
The "Unspoken" Truths American History Traveling Museum chronicles the rich history of Africans in Africa prior to American Chattel Slavery, the experiences and impact of American Chattel Slavery, Jim Crow Era, and the many contributions African Americans have had on scientific, cultural, and technological (inventions) innovations in the U.S. and the world.”
This is Eastlakes fourth year participating in the Museum and we are excited to host the event in this new virtual format. For more information about the Museum please visit the website: http://www.theunspokentruths.com/
