  1. Kezia,
    First, congratulations for your endowed chair! Serious honor.
    I am trying to get in touch with you as there will be a memorial for Colin Palmer on October 26 at the Schomburg Center. 5-8pm. Aisha and I are helping the family send the evite to former fellows, and I am updating contact information.

    I believe the evite only lists names not emails. Let me know if this is sufficient notice or if you want to receive the evite.

    Diana
