TEXAS BIENNIAL AFRICAN AMERICAN HISTORY CONFERENCE: UNDERGROUND RAILROAD IN TEXASApril 8-9, 2022Traditionally, scholars who have studied the Underground Railroad maintained that African Americans escaped slavery by heading north to locations that supported the antislavery movement such as New York, Philadelphia, Cincinnati, and eventually, even to Canada. But historians have also found that there was a southern route that African Americans seeking freedom from slavery took through Texas into Mexico. This conference will feature scholars who have studied the southern route to freedom taken by African Americans and illuminate how African Americans found freedom in Mexico and made it as viable a “promised land” as Canada. This conference is free and open to the public. For more information, contact Dr. W. Marvin Dulaney at .

TEXAS BLACK SPORTS HALL OF FAME INDUCTION LUNCHEONSaturday, February 18, 2023.The Texas Black Sports Hall of Fame (TBSHOF), housed at the African American Museum, was established to chronicle the sports history contributions made by African Americans. It was established in 1996 to honor coaches and athletes of high character and athletic achievement, who are either Texans by birth or by athletic participation (collegiate or professional), and who have made recognizable contributions to African American culture and/or history. The general public submits the nominees, and a panel of judges (including sports/media journalists) makes the final selection. AN EVENING WITH SCOTT JOPLIN CHAMBER ORCHESTRA OF HOUSTONSaturday, February 5, 2022 – 5:00 p.m.The Scott Joplin Chamber Orchestra (SJCO) is one of the nation’s oldest contemporary majority African-American community orchestras. Formed in 1983 under the umbrella of Community Music Center of Houston (CMCH) by its Music Director, Anne Lundy, its mission is to share music written by Black composers with communities which historically have had limited access to orchestral works. THE SJCO has performed mainstream works such as Handel’s Messiah but black composers and traditions are its focus. In 1986, CMCH’s Martin Luther King Jr. Birthday Celebration orchestral performance of Free At Last grabbed such public attention that it served as the theme of Dan Rather’s CBS News cast that day. In 1991, CMCH presented the first major Juneteenth concert to be held indoors at Houston’s Wortham Theater. In 1995 the daughter of William Grant Still who is considered to be the dean of African-American composers so appreciated CMCH that of all the national 100 birthday, she chose to celebrate his birthday with a workshop and a performance of his music performed by CMCH’s Scott Joplin Chamber Orchestra. Other notable performances include accompanying pop superstar Beyoncé as she sang the Star Spangled Banner at Super Bowl XXXIII.
