Description
The Carter G. Woodson Institute for African-American and African Studies at the University of Virginia hosted a symposium on the NAACP's 100th anniversary Oct. 29 and 30, 2009. Civil rights pioneer Julian Bond, a professor of history at U.Va. and chairman of the national NAACP, gave the keynote address and also interviewed Benjamin Jealous, NAACP president and CEO. Jealous also gave remarks. The rest of the symposium consisted of panel discussions with local and visiting participants on desegregation in education, voting rights, equal access to housing and public accommodations, environmental justice, police brutality and fair employment practices. "We have invited a stellar cast of scholars for two days of formal presentations and discussions designed to highlight recent developments in academic research on the NAACP," said Deborah McDowell, director of the Woodson Institute.
