Suisun City’s Black History Month celebration features a ‘Rosie the Riveter’
SUISUN CITY — The city’s inaugural Black History Month celebration kicked off Wednesday and concludes Saturday.
The theme is “The Black Family: Representation, Identity and Diversity,” which mirrors the 2021 theme of the Association for the Study of African American Life and History, formerly called the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History founded in 1915 by Carter G. Woodson.
Suisun Mayor Pro Tem Wanda Williams and the Tri-City Branch NAACP have partnered to plan and implement the city’s celebration.
First in the series was “Soul Food: History, Tradition and Importance,” featuring members of the Reed family, proprietors of Fairfield’s Chez Soul.
