Lecture: Hidden in Plain Sight: Moss Kendrix and the Enterprise to Sell Black Citizenship
Dr. Brenna Wynn Greer will trace how Black public relations guru Moss Hyles Kendrix enlisted white corporate America in a campaign to redefine black citizenship after World War II. Dr. Greer will also examine how Kendrix and his work—so visible and so important in the early Cold War era—was almost lost to us. Dr. Greer is Associate Professor of History at Wellesley College, and her first book Represented: The Black Imagemakers Who Reimagined African American Citizenship (University of Pennsylvania Press), is now available for purchase. Tickets are $6. To purchase lecture tickets, visit AlexandriaVa.Gov/Shop.
Guests will receive an email shortly after purchase with the Zoom meeting link, Meeting ID, and password. Please check junk mail before requesting assistance from the MuseumShop email. Ticket sales will close at 4 p.m. February 17.
