January 31, 2006. IRC arranged two programs for U.S. Speaker Ethel Morgan Smith, University of West Virginia, in Hamburg. She gave a reading from her work at Gymnasium Heidberg and a presentation at the teacher training institute. She engaged her audiences in lively Q&A sessions and answered a wide range of questions about her personal life as well as the current state of the civil rights movement.
Educators received authentic insights into African-American life and were exposed to new books and films suitable to teaching the topic in the secondary English language classroom.
