Dr. Ife Williams (Political Science)

On 27 February, Dr. Ife Williams led a group of students from her African-American History course to the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology and the National Constitution Center. The group visited the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology in the morning for a tour of their permamnent Ancient Egyptian collection and special exhibit, "Iyare! Spendor and Tension in Benin's Palace Theatre". They traveled to the National Constitution Center in the afternoon to see "Freedom Rising", the center's permanent theatrical performance, and "America I Am: The African-American Imprint", a special exhibit from now until 3 May. Dr. Williams is offering a course on African-American history at DCCC's Southeast Center this semester.
