On Sunday, September 22, 2013, I participated in a panel discussion, “Rethinking the Black Chicago Renaissance,” with Richard Courage, Sonja Michelle Y. Gordon, and Sonja Williams. The event was a fundraiser for the Vivian G. Harsh Society. Here we are with a portrait of Vivian G. Harsh that hangs on the walls of the collection than now bears her name, the Vivian G. Harsh Research Collection of Afro-American History and Literature.
