It was such an honor to be present and included in the retelling of a forgotten Spelman College history- the Board of Trustees Lock in of 1976, which served as a catalyst for the college to hire its first black female president. Found on 1/2” open reel, the only known footage of that event is now able to be included in the fabric of Spelman’s history thanks to College Archivist Holly Smith.
