You can see actors playing Tuskegee airmen in the new movie Red Tails, or you can see and hear the real thing on campus next week, when George W. Porter pays a visit to Associate Professor Halifu Osumare’s African American and African Studies 100.
The 90-year-old Porter is scheduled to visit on Tuesday (Feb. 7). Osumare said members of the campus community are welcome to sit in, from noon to 1:30 p.m. at the Student Community Center.
The Cross Cultural Center, located in the new community center, is co-sponsoring Porter’s visit, which comes during Black History Month.
