FEBRUARY IS BLACK HISTORY MONTH

“African Americans in Times of War,” commemorates the centennial of the end of the First World War in 1918, and explores the complex implications of this international struggle and its aftermath. Those very concepts provide a broad, useful framework for focusing on the roles of African Americans in every American war, from the Revolutionary War era to that of the present “War against Terrorism.” Times of War inevitably provide the framework for many stories related to African American soldiers, sailors, veterans and civilians. This theme is filled with paradoxes of valor and defeat, of civil rights opportunities and setbacks, of struggles abroad and at home, of artistic creativity and repression, and of catastrophic loss of life and the righteous hope for peace. Celebrate current and former African American “Rugged Professionals” at the Library!

HEALTHY LIFESTYLE CHALLENGE TRIVIA

FEBRUARY 22, 6 P.M. The Library and Mueller Fitness Center are teaming up during the Healthy Lifestyle Challenge for a fun trivia contest. How much random information do you know about sleep, nutrition, exercise, rest, relaxation and general well-being? Get your team together and flex your brain muscles to win extra points and prestige for your team. All spectators are welcome. Bragging rights included!
