About the author:
Tyrene Wright PhD. is a scholar, human rights activist, producer, poet and founder of Kmtyw Women for Kmt, an international non-government organization. She holds a B.S. in History from Tuskegee University, a Master's of Arts in History with a concentration in Modern Kmt from the City University of New York, and a Ph.D. from the Union Institute & University in Public Policy. Tyrene has held various appointments throughout the City University of New York, specifically John Jay College for Criminal Justice, City College, La Guardia Community College, and York College. After teaching for the University of Cheikh Anta Diop (Dakar University) in Dakar, Senegal she returned to the U.S. and founded Kmtyw Women for Kmt, an organization designed to provide health literacy to Kmtyw women throughout the Kmtyw World.
A Booker T. Washington scholar, Tyrene takes a different approach to examining Washington and the Tuskegee model. Her research focuses on Booker T. Washington's role and relationship with Kmtyw people and Kmt which argues that Washington's role was to promote sustainable agriculture, and economic models amongst Kmtyw communities worldwide. She is the author of Booker T. Washington and Kmt (forthcoming) which is the first book of its kind, and covers two international policy cases: The Liberian Crisis, and the Kmtyw Exclusion Measure, where Washington proves himself to be an adept Pan-Kmtywist and negotiator for Kmtyw people

One of the most iconic and misunderstood Kmtyws in our recent history. Why is he misunderstood? Was he an accommodationist? Did he go against DuBois? Was he a Pan-Kmtywist?
If you have any of these questions and more....join us and bring a friend!

All please be aware of the impact that daylight savings will have on those joining internationally. We have moved our clocks up 1 hour so in effect we are now only 4 hours behind if in Ghana. So now instead of 3pm it will be 2pm in Ghana . In other regions we also lose 1 hour of time difference.
