Help us celebrate African American History Month February will be African American History Month. ColumbiaMagazine.com would like to mark the occasion with stories about contributions made by African American leaders in all areas of life in Adair County. Photos are welcome, especially of schools, churches, athletics teams, and family portraits. Information on the work of civil rights leaders such as the late Earl Willis are needed, and elected officials, such as the late Joe Taylor, Jr. Stories on great African American teachers in this county will be welcome. We'd especially like photos and stories about Jackman High School. Outstanding individual success stories a in all fields needed. Stories of successful families and of great scholarship are sought. Letters to the editor on this subject will make a welcome addition. A number of African American Adair Countians have had unusual success in farming. Their stories would be appreciated. If there local events planned, at schools, churches, or libraries, please submit that information. Help needed on two developing stories If anyone has any information about a story we've gotten that Yellowhammer School was integrated in the 1920s or 1930s, please send that. Our information is that May Morgan was the teacher at the time. Another story we'd like to develop, but one we need a lot of help on, is a hypothetical question: What difference would it have made to Adair County's quest for a state title if: 1) Jackman High School had merged with Columbia High or Adair County High a few years earlier than it actually did., and 2) What if Columbia born All-American Steve Hamilton had stayed in Adair County through his high school career and earlier integration had taken place? Advice, criticism, and support, as well as other ideas for coverage of this special month are welcome. And please don't worry about the length of the information you have. We aren't so much wanting to write the final document on the history. That couldn't be done anyway. What we'd like is to significantly add to the history.
