Meek Eaton Black Archives

On September 24, 2016 the Meek-Eaton Southeastern Regional Black Archives Research Center and Museum launched a “Friend Raiser” event to show appreciation and enhance the center’s membership database to the University and community.  This event also served as an opportunity for the general public to hear the future vision of Carnegie Center’s Director, Dr. Nashid Madyun.
 

This event’s images were shot by Black Archives’ student worker, Ms. Torkwase Yayri Hazell, a public relations major from Atlanta, Georgia.
