General note"May 14, 1994, was an important date for Greenville, North Carolina: The mayor proclaimed it 'Minnie Evans Day'. With that announcement, a meeting, art exhibit, family reunion, barbecue, and gospel sing began. Northerners came south, white people swayed to black gospel music, and men and women wept. For three days, a community of family, friends, art collectors, and scholars celebrated the memory of Minnie Evans.' " -- Page 45 of book.
