Westchester has been home to a number of prominent African American women, many of whom have been relatively unrecognized. In this 60-minute digital slide presentation, Barbara Davis relates the Westchester years of early pioneers, such as Sojourner Truth, to more contemporary women, such as leaders in psychology, dramatic arts, music, law, and other fields. Croton-on-Hudson’s own Lorraine Hansberry provides the link in a fascinating thread of remarkable African American women with ties to Westchester.
