The late leader of one of America’s noted Black women’s organizations will be celebrated during an event that highlights the strength and value of the African-American family.
Dorothy Height, the former chair and president emerita of the National Council of Negro Women (NCNW) who died on April 20, will be the focus of the 25th annual National Black Family Reunion Celebration on Sat., Sept. 11 on the National Mall. The Black Family Reunion is the signature program of the NCNW — which is celebrating its 75th anniversary this year. “We are planning to have a huge mega-festival that will feature a special tribute to Dr. Height,” Avis A. Jones-DeWeever, the executive director of the NCNW, said.
