Top Black history textbook publisher gives professional development on anniversary of Emancipation Proclamation
The most prolific Black history textbook publisher gathers educators, planners, architects and parents Sept. 20-28 for the 16th annual Preserving California Black Heritage.

He shares findings from his project for the African-American Art & Culture Complex in the opening tour Mapping Maya Wednesday, Sept. 20 in conjunction with American Institute of Architects-San Francisco.
His experience is vital given attempts to ban books and courses on African-American history. His Free African Schools professional development on Friday, Sept. 22, the anniversary of the preliminary Emancipation Proclamation, shows how to stay in the classroom and off the talk shows.
