CRENSHAW : Karenga to Speak on Relationships
Maulana Karenga, founder and director of the African American Cultural Center, will speak at 3 p.m. today at the center, 2560 W. 54th St. The event is free.
The lecture is the last in the center’s February series on relationships and communication between black men and women. Karenga’s lecture, “Woman and Man in Love and Struggle: An African Understanding,” will examine the nature and dynamics of those relationships, a topic that in recent years has fueled heated discussion and spawned books.
Karenga is chairman of the Black Studies Department at Cal State Long Beach, and creator of the December harvest-season holiday of Kwanzaa, which celebrates the principles of black family and unity.
