Tour through local cemetery highlights trailblazing African Americans in San Antonio
SAN ANTONIO – Everyone has a story. However, Deborah Omowale Jarmon, the Executive Director of the San Antonio African American Community Archive and Museum, says the trailblazing stories of people of color -- have been historically harder to find. It’s why SAAACAM is hosting a tour in Eastview Cemetery on Saturday of local African American historical icons and the impact they made in the community. “They can expect a safe, socially-distanced tour,” Jarmon said. She was one of the founders of Delta Sigma Theta sorority, establishing the local chapter in San Antonio.
