Join us for a riveting conversation with award-winning biologist Beronda Montgomery as we discuss her book, When Trees Testify: Science, Wisdom, History, and America’s Black Botanical Legacy.
In When Trees Testify, award-winning plant biologist Beronda L. Montgomery explores the ways seven trees, as well as the cotton shrub, are intertwined with Black history and culture. She reveals how knowledge surrounding these trees has shaped America since the very beginning. As Montgomery shows, trees are material witnesses to the lives of enslaved Africans and their descendants.

We have been asked, “What is Topics Trivia?”
It’s a game that lets players show what they know. A team consists of 1 to 6 players. Teams are asked questions from different topics, such as literature, geography, sports, television, history, movies, etc. After a question is asked, the teams choose and submit an answer before the allotted time period ends. The correct answer scores points. The team with the most points at the end of the game is the winner and prize(s) will be awarded.
