SUMMARY:From Labor to Reward: An Evening with Martha C. Taylor
DESCRIPTION:Join author Rev. Dr. Martha C. Taylor – who has served as both SFTS and GTU adjunct professor — for an evening discussing her newest book\, From Labor to Reward. \nThursday\, February 23\, 2017 | 7PM – 8:30 PM \nSan Francisco Theological Seminary\n101 Seminary Road\nScott Hall room 101\nSan Anselmo\, CA 94960\nCOMPLIMENTARY ADMISSION – REGISTER ONLINE \nThis groundbreaking book fills a huge void in American religious history\, black religious history\, and traditions of the black church. Until now\, no other book has chronicled the rich religious experiences of black church beginnings in the Bay Area. Martha C. Taylor provides penetrating insight into the early makings of the black church in the Bay Area. With attention to detail\, Taylor captures the joys\, frustrations\, and unity of black people who left the segregated Deep South\, came to the Bay Area seeking freedom only to face similar adversities of segregation\, racism\, housing discrimination\, KKK threats of violence\, and other socio-political barriers. Remarkably\, these early pioneers brought their culture\, traditions\, and experiences from the South and built a strong vibrant religious community. From Labor to Reward speaks for the legacy of African Americans who were gospel social activists using the church as the anchor. Multiple sources of research and interviews were gathered from church records\, newspaper clippings\, and other written sources to tell this unknown story. \nRev. Dr. Martha C. Taylor is the Historian for the Progressive National Baptist Convention\, Inc. and church historian for the historic Allen Temple Baptist Church\, Oakland\, California. She has served as adjunct professor for the San Francisco Theological Seminary\, Graduate Theological Union\, Berkeley\, Doctor of Ministry and Masters of Divinity programs. Taylor is dually ordained as an American Baptist and Presbyterian Minister. She resides in Oakland\, California.

Woodson founded the celebration he called “Negro History Week” in 1926. Dr. Woodson selected the second week of February for the celebration because it fell between the birthdays of the famed orator and abolitionist Frederick Douglass and President Abraham Lincoln. In 1976\, the celebration expanded to include the entire month of February. Today\, Black History Month is celebrated across the United States by people of all ethnic and social backgrounds. At Pacific\, it is observed during a monthlong celebration in February organized by Pacific’s Black History Month Planning Committee.

SUMMARY:Oakland Interfaith Gospel Choir - Black History Month Celebration
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of Black History Month\, the Oakland Interfaith Gospel Choir pays homage to traditional spirituals and black gospel music\, under the direction of Terrance Kelly. The choir will be joined by Henrietta Davis\, Jackie Tolbert\, and the McGuillicutty sisters and will be honoring bay area legends The Oakland Gospelettes. \nThe Oakland Interfaith Gospel Choir delivers good news – the power and glory of 55 talented singers blending their voices together in rapturous harmony on gospel standards\, traditional spirituals\, and their own original praise songs. The East Bay Express has described the harmonies on their most recent album\, Hear My Prayer\, as “absolutely divine\,” and the live version\, with the vibrations of all those gorgeous voices filling the Freight\, is even more inspiring. \nThe OIGC grew out of a gospel music workshop at Jazz Camp West in 1986. Terrance Kelly led the workshop and has served as artistic director of the choir ever since. The son of esteemed jazz pianist Ed Kelly and gospel choir director Faye Kelly\, Terrence is an Emmy-winning director\, composer\, and arranger\, as well as a popular soloist with what allaboutjazz.com calls “an operatic range and a joyous emotional feel.” Under his leadership\, the choir has recorded with such artists as Linda Ronstadt\, Peter Gabriel\, MC Hammer\, Tramaine Hawkins\, and the Kronos Quartet\, performed onstage with a number of notable musicians including Stan Getz\, Carlos Santana\, and Joan Baez\, and appeared on three Grammy-winning albums. The choir’s outstanding band includes Ben Heveroh and Louis Burrell on keyboards\, David Belove on bass\, and Miles Lathan on drums. \nThe mission of the OIGC is “to inspire joy and unity among all people through black gospel and spiritual music traditions.” If you’re in the mood for a big helping of joy and inspiration\, don’t miss the Oakland Interfaith Gospel Choir at the Freight! \n$22 ADV / $24 DOOR \n
