Erie County Legislator & Majority Leader April N.M. Baskin and historian Eva M. Doyle will be co-sponsoring a Buffalo Black History Bee in conjunction with East Community School. The focus of this year’s event is the African Diaspora. See the attached flyer for additional details.

The trivia competition has been rescheduled due to the severe winter weather; all rounds will now take place on February 2, 2019. Preliminary competition will start at 10 am, followed by lunch at noon and the championship beginning at 2 pm.

The location is East High Community School, location at 820 Northampton St in Buffalo. The winners will receive a $250 grand prize along with the Eva M. Doyle Black History Trophy. The event is open to the public, and community members are encouraged to attend and support our students as they compete. Anyone with questions should email Brendan in Legislator Baskin’s office at brendan.oconnor@erie.gov.
