Have you been to the African American Library at the Gregory School?

The library provides incomparable collections of multi-type resources including reference books, rare books, archival materials, exhibits, artifacts, oral histories, and innovative programs. Worth a visit for the building itself, but the quality of collections there is exceptional.
You can enjoy now an exhibition  about the Independence Heights, a historical African American community in Houston: "Independence Heights: A Window to the Past"
Integral to the exhibit are photographs and artifacts representing the seven principles that are universal to the development of communities: unity, self determination, collective work and responsibility, purpose, cooperative economics, creativity and faith.

Do you wants to know more? Hurry up before it closes!
The exhibition will be held over until October17th, 2015.
