This event marked an important milestone in the library’s history: originally closed in July 1960 after refusing to integrate, the library triumphantly reopened in November that year on an integrated basis. The anniversary gala was a celebration of the library’s incredible journey and the community’s struggle to create unity. “We are honored to celebrate 100 years of service to the Petersburg community,” Wayne Crocker, library director, said. “This Gala is not only a reflection on our history but a look forward to how we will continue to inspire learning and growth in Petersburg for many years to come.” To learn more about hosting David Baldacci for your special event, visit our website, or contact us at hachettespeakers@hbgusa.com"> </a> </div> </div><div class="sbi_item sbi_type_image sbi_new sbi_transition" id="sbi_18290994712233502" data-date="1731700201"> <div class="sbi_photo_wrap"> <a class="sbi_photo" href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DCZ4P9HSTFu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow" data-full-res="https://scontent-iad3-2.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.75761-15/466999316_18009917399656357_6377255634749429511_n.jpg?_nc_cat=106&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=18de74&_nc_ohc=4oEKeHZ5ZZcQ7kNvgHU0P8o&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-2.cdninstagram.com&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&_nc_gid=Ab9Utpp7aYBTR-LzE-1VuSF&oh=00_AYBHEUHanhHes9YJZHaebabVK6gqaIgHNyxPKlwpc7Tyfg&oe=674CDB32" data-img-src-set="{"d":"https:\/\/scontent-iad3-2.cdninstagram.com\/v\/t51.75761-15\/466999316_18009917399656357_6377255634749429511_n.jpg?_nc_cat=106&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=18de74&_nc_ohc=4oEKeHZ5ZZcQ7kNvgHU0P8o&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-2.cdninstagram.com&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&_nc_gid=Ab9Utpp7aYBTR-LzE-1VuSF&oh=00_AYBHEUHanhHes9YJZHaebabVK6gqaIgHNyxPKlwpc7Tyfg&oe=674CDB32","150":"https:\/\/scontent-iad3-2.cdninstagram.com\/v\/t51.75761-15\/466999316_18009917399656357_6377255634749429511_n.jpg?_nc_cat=106&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=18de74&_nc_ohc=4oEKeHZ5ZZcQ7kNvgHU0P8o&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-2.cdninstagram.com&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&_nc_gid=Ab9Utpp7aYBTR-LzE-1VuSF&oh=00_AYBHEUHanhHes9YJZHaebabVK6gqaIgHNyxPKlwpc7Tyfg&oe=674CDB32","320":"https:\/\/scontent-iad3-2.cdninstagram.com\/v\/t51.75761-15\/466999316_18009917399656357_6377255634749429511_n.jpg?_nc_cat=106&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=18de74&_nc_ohc=4oEKeHZ5ZZcQ7kNvgHU0P8o&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-2.cdninstagram.com&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&_nc_gid=Ab9Utpp7aYBTR-LzE-1VuSF&oh=00_AYBHEUHanhHes9YJZHaebabVK6gqaIgHNyxPKlwpc7Tyfg&oe=674CDB32","640":"https:\/\/scontent-iad3-2.cdninstagram.com\/v\/t51.75761-15\/466999316_18009917399656357_6377255634749429511_n.jpg?_nc_cat=106&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=18de74&_nc_ohc=4oEKeHZ5ZZcQ7kNvgHU0P8o&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-2.cdninstagram.com&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&_nc_gid=Ab9Utpp7aYBTR-LzE-1VuSF&oh=00_AYBHEUHanhHes9YJZHaebabVK6gqaIgHNyxPKlwpc7Tyfg&oe=674CDB32"}"> <span class="sbi-screenreader">November is Native American Heritage Month, a time</span> <img src="https://hachettespeakersbureau.com/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png" alt="November is Native American Heritage Month, a time to reflect on how we share the stories of Indigenous peoples. Our speaker, Jennifer Raff, is a leading voice in this area of anthropology. The New York Times recently called her book, ORIGIN, *THE* must-read for anyone interested in the genetic history and migration patterns of Indigenous Americans. The Times also highlights Raff’s unique approach, noting that she celebrates science while critically addressing the harm it has caused Indigenous communities. “#DecolonizeScience might sound good on Twitter, but it means little unless acted upon,” they write. “Raff offers a roadmap for making this change and argues convincingly why it’s essential for the future of science.” As The New York Times puts it, Jennifer Raff is truly “at the forefront of a cultural shift in science.” Contact us to book her for your next event! #Anthropology #Nonfiction #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth #AuthorEvents">
