Remembering Walter Stafford: A Celebration of Service, Scholarship and Activism Sunday, October 12, 2008 @ 3PM Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture 515 Malcolm X Blvd at 135th Street, Harlem Dear all, Walter passed away on Saturday morning. Please go to walterstafford.blogspot.com to express your remembrances and condolences. His wife will also make announcements regarding a memorial service on this site. Please feel free to forward this as I may have forgotten some people. We will also do something for him at Wagner; I will definitely keep people informed about that. I wanted however to express that we will be creating a fellowship to honor him and his commitment to not only to communities of color but to public service. If anyone, in particular his former students, want to start a committee to begin fundraising for this initiative please let me know. The Women of Color Policy Network was honored to have had him as our principal investigator for nearly a decade. I have been honored to work under him and to learn so much from someone who never let the movement die. We must honor his life and his work, you all knew Walter he wanted to use research and advocacy to change the way policy works. We must continue that legacy.
