IAM Scholar's Talk with Ron Abram


Irving Archives and Museum

Join the Irving Archives and Museum for its latest Scholar's Talk on the Second Saturday in February! Ron Abram, Calvin Littlejohn’s grandson, will share some of Littlejohn’s photographs. Abram will show a wide variety of scenes from the African American experience in North Texas. Mr. Abram manages the Littlejohn Photo Archive in association with the Briscoe Center for American History at the University of Texas, Austin. The Littlejohn archive is the most comprehensive photo documentation of urban Texas African American life and culture in the post-World War II segregation era.

Attendees will also have the opportunity to visit IAM's most recent traveling exhibition, "Fighting for the Right to Fight: African American Experiences in WWII" from the National WWII Museum.
