Here’s to wishing your 2nd Annual Black History & Southern Dinner is a HUGE SUCCESS! I am with you every step of the way.
“Mmmmm. Don’t call the dogs on them at the fancy shindig” – Mother Gladys Buffington
Excited to attend the 2nd Annual Black History & Southern Dinner! Professor Buffington gifts the city of Pullman in presenting her life’s work to create a
dialog for engagement. Our community is asking its people to move forward; however, we can’t move forward without addressing inequality, equity and racism. Professor Buffington is real-life history, present-history, and a gateway to promoting a positive future.
Just saying:)
