The inventory of all identified photos is complete! MCLM’s collection of processed photos consists of 13,485 photographs that range in date from the mid 1800’s to the early 2000’s. These photographs account for 2,579 folders of different people and places. Successfully completing this task allowed me to utilize my organizational and people management skills.
Every fourth Saturday of the month MCLM hosts a movie event called Black Talkies on Parade featuring a vintage African American film. This month the movie was The World, The Flesh and The Devil featuring Harry Belafonte. In preparation for this event I helped put together a one case exhibit. The items that were pulled for the exhibit pertained to Harry Belafonte and Black Hollywood.
