In observance of African American History Month, the Lynchburg Public Library, located at 2315 Memorial Avenue, is hosting a traveling exhibit entitled "2011 African American Trailblazers in Virginia," created by the Library of Virginia. The exhibit, on display through Tuesday, April 12, honors eight distinguished Virginians for their contributions to Virginia and the nation.

Those being honored include Lynchburg's own Dr. Robert Walter Johnson (1899-1971), tennis coach and physician; John Rollison (d. 1780), York County, entrepreneur and landowner; Henry Box Brown (1815 or 1816-after February 26, 1889), Richmond, abolitionist and performer ; Lucy Frances Simms (d. 1934), Harrisonburg, educator ; Henrietta Lacks (1920-1951),
Clover, principal in a medical cause célèbre; Wendell Scott (1921-1990), Danville, stockcar racer; Annie Belle Daniels, Newport News, entrepreneur; and John Arthur Stokes, Prince Edward County, civil rights activist.

These men and women offer powerful examples of individuals who refused to be defined by their circumstances. Their biographies are a testament
to the determination and perseverance displayed by extraordinary people during challenging times. Through education and advocacy, these
individuals demonstrate how African Americans have actively campaigned for better lives for themselves and their people. It is these many
contributions that the African American Trailblazers program seeks to share.

Funding for the exhibit was provided in partnership with Capital One Financial Corporation.
