Dozens of community leaders, local political leaders, activists and supporters attended the Black History Tribute honoring Civil Rights legend Mrs. Gwen Green on Tuesday, February 23, 2016.

 This special reception was sponsored by the Los Angeles United Methodist Museum of Social Justice and the Los Angeles Black Worker Center, where Mrs. Green is a member.

The Gwen Green Civic Engagement Project at the Los Angeles Black Worker Center was established to commemorate her indelible mark on Los Angeles and the world. Proceeds will be used to continue the work around voter registration and the center's Ready-to-Work program.
