Highlands Ranch: The Olympic Games, born of diplomatic and political design, have always played an important role in international politics. The Olympics provide a stage for both international cooperation and peaceful competition, as well as international conflict and confrontation. Join Active Minds as we explore the rich history of the Olympics and how the games have been involved in a variety of international political issues over the years. This community lecture is sponsored by the Douglas County Libraries. Start: 7:30 pm
Colfax Avenue: In celebration of Black History Month, local journalist, sports writer, and author, Denny Dressman will discuss and sign the new book Eddie Robinson “…he was the Martin Luther King of football” ($24.95 ComServ Books), which presents one of the most extraordinary careers in the history of college football, set in the context of the Deep South’s Jim Crow Era of segregation. This biography blends Robinson’s responses to historic social and political events with his efforts to put tiny Grambling University and black college football on the national map; and the result is a unique portrait of both African-American history and a sports icon’s life.
