African-American Women in the USA - Yesterday and Today.

In order to celebrate Black History Month, American Corner Timisoara hosted on March 1, 2007, a presentation by US Embassy Vice Consul, Julie Greenblatt, on African-American Women in the USA - Yesterday and Today.

The event was attended by 35 high school students from “Bela Bartok” High School Timisoara, coordinated by their English teacher and Peace Corps Volunteer, Sakin Won. The students found the topic very interesting and asked specific questions, but wanted to know also about the US in general.

On March 2, 2007, American Corner Timisoara facilitated the same presentation of Ms. Greenblatt, this time for 53 high school students and three teachers on the premises of “Nikolau Lenau” High School Timisoara. Cultural Affairs Officer, Kathy Kavalec was also present at this event. The students were very enthusiastic and interested in the theme, but also interested about the US social and educational systems.

Media coverage: three articles in the local newspapers (Agenda Zilei, Renasterea Banateana, Anuntul).
