A Message from the Chair…. PDF Print E-mail


To Members and Partners of the CRRC

It is indeed an honor to serve as Chair of such an outstanding organization.  In my years of being affiliated with the board, its’ members - both individual and corporate, the vision and mission continues to expand of future possibilities.

I dare not try to reflect on all that has been accomplished in past years, but I would like to give special thanks to the founders who saw a need for bringing together people of like minds, values and a dedicated interest in addressing the need for:

“the promotion of racial and cultural awareness, acceptance and inclusion through dynamic outreach to strengthen our community”. 

You dared to dream of a better community, city and world with courage to address issues that others would ignore.  For this, I, along with many others, salute you.

With the beginning of a new year, we are excited to be in our new home.  We have partnered with St. Albans and can now call a part of their campus home.  We celebrated our first Quarterly Meeting there on January 26th with a theme of “A Salute to Black Gospel Music” with a fabulous presentation by Robert Darden, co-founder of the Black Gospel Music Restoration Project at Baylor University.  With 80+ in attendance, our knowledge and appreciation of this rich history was brought alive through his love of this music.

We have a very exciting year planned for our Quarterly Meetings’ program so I would encourage you to stay connected with us as we journey into the future.  We promise you that we will always do our best to make you proud that you partnered with us through your time and membership.

We will continue to write the present everyday that will shape our future so that the mission of the CRRC will be accomplished.  I am honored to serve on your team!!


Respectfully and proud to serve,

Dannie,

CRRC Board Chair

 
CRRC Joins St. Alban’s Outreach First Public Program at St. Alban’s January 26, 2012 PDF Print E-mail

St. Alban’s Outreach Center is pleased to announce that the Community Race Relations Coalition (CRRC) has joined us during the fall.  CRRC was established in 2001 to express concerns and provide information that helps citizens in Waco to deal with all forms of racial prejudices.  One of its signal accomplishments was the proclamations that decried the racism of the early 20th century still pictured in the McLennan courthouse mural.

For 2012 CRRC will provide four public meetings in the St. Alban’s parish hall, each of which will focus on a theme of celebrating diversity.  CRRC is very pleased to be included in the outreach ministry of St. Alban’s and to be able to provide programming in the St. Alban’s Parish Hall.  For more information about CRRC see its website:  www.crrcwco.org

The first meeting,  January 26, 2012, will host Bob Darden, recently named Wacoan of the year, associate professor of journalism, Baylor University, author of 25 books and numerous articles.  Darden will speak to the value of Black Gospel Music in American culture and describe the development of the Black Gospel collection at Baylor University that resulted from a New York Times op ed piece that he wrote.  Darden’s first book on Black Gospel Music is People Get Ready:  A New History of Black Gospel Music (Continuum 2005) and he is currently working on a two-volume set for Penn State University Press, Nothing but Love in God’s Water:  The Influence of Black Gospel Music on the Civil Rights Movement.
