Happy Black History Month! Today I am thinking about the brilliant anthropologist and writer Zora Neale Hurston (1891-1960), who said, "If you are silent about your pain, they'll kill you and say you enjoyed it." Recommended: Their Eyes Were Watching God; Barracoon; (cont'd)

The arena will be adjacent to the Moody Center and also include student-athlete housing.
