SUMMARY:bell hooks legacy day
DESCRIPTION:The City of Hopkinsville and the bell hooks Legacy Group will host a dedication ceremony for bell hooks Way — formerly Eighth Street between South Virginia and Clay streets — at 1:30 p.m. Friday\, March 1. The public is invited to gather at Eighth and Liberty streets for the unveiling of a new street sign and acknowledgments of bell hooks’ legacy in Hopkinsville and beyond. \nFollowing the street dedication\, attendees are invited to the Pennyroyal Area Museum\, 217 E. Ninth St.\, for the opening of the newly created bell hooks Legacy Room. \nTogether\, these two events will mark bell hooks Legacy Day to honor the memory of a great American writer\, educator and cultural critic who hailed from Hopkinsville. Born as Gloria Jean Watkins on Sept. 25\, 1952\, she adopted the pen name bell hooks from her great-grandmother and earned international acclaim for her writings on feminism\, race and class. She passed away on Dec. 15\, 2021\, at her home in Berea. \nHopkinsville City Council agreed to rename the street for bell hooks at the request of her sister\, Gwenda Motley\, and other advocates who seek to illuminate the writer’s impact in her hometown. \n“The family is very excited to have a street named on her behalf and a community room named in her honor\,” said Motley. \nThe selection of Eighth Street is significant because it is adjacent to the Carnegie Library\, which was the main public library in Hopkinsville when Gloria Watkins was a child. There she gained access to hundreds of books that helped cultivate her intellectual development. \nThe bell hooks Legacy Group is a grassroots alliance that nurtures the meaning and impact of the writer’s stories\, essays and poems in her hometown\, Hopkinsville\, Kentucky\, where she began life as Gloria Jean Watkins.

SUMMARY:History on Tap: Christian County's Wealthiest Woman
DESCRIPTION:We are honoring Women’s History Month at History on Tap with a special program about a fascinating local woman. \nIn 1896 following the death of her mother\, seven-year-old Louise Jones became one of the wealthiest people in Christian County. Her father Lucian Jones\, the first president of the City Bank of Hopkinsville\, had already passed away –  before his little daughter’s second birthday. As the family’s sole heir\, the young orphan inherited a great estate and led a fascinating life. Museum Director Alissa Keller will explore the story of this local woman in all of its beauty and tragedy. \nKeller joins us again to present in April on yet another fascinating local personality and his connection to an international diamond hoax in the late 19th century. \nHistory on Tap is a free series that seeks to share local history in a relaxed\, fun setting. Programs are typically held on the last Thursday of the month at 6:30pm at Hopkinsville Brewing Company. \nFor more information\, follow us on Facebook or give us a call at 270-887-4270.
