Blacks Hold Program To Honor Nat Turner

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Black Harvard and Radcliffe students held a mass meeting in Lowell Lecture Hall yesterday which featured a program of speakers, workshops and cultural activities, including an African drum ensemble.

The gathering was called to celebrate African Freedom Fighters' Day and to commemorate the date of Nat Turner's death. (In 1831, Turner led an abortive slave revolt in Virginia.)

Ewart G. Guinier '33, chairman of Afro-American Studies at Harvard, was one of the seven speakers.

No whites were admitted to the meeting.
