By Delanda S. Johnson/Henderson County Black History Committee
On Saturday, October 7, the Henderson County Black History Committee hosted its 2017 Multi-Cultural Extravaganza at the Malakoff Community/Senior Center.
The event was hosted by Billy Williams and Humberto Rivera. The event highlighted guest speakers talking about their cultures after Ritu Bhasin speech.
Gloria Hunter, Derryl Jackson, and Delanda S. Johnson each had papers on different African American heroes for the Black History moments.
Guest for the evening included Michael Hannigan, Leilani Smith and her mother, and Juan Moreno.
Each speaker talked about their experiences growing up, their native land as seen through grandparents/great grandparents eyes, but the one thing each speaker had in common was that we are all children of God. They each expressed that we must unity as one if we was to see Jesus; for there are no racial barrier in Heaven.
