Ted Corbitt Way
Street Co-Naming Ceremony
Saturday, August 16th 11A
228th Street & Broadway in New York will be co-named Ted Corbitt Way August 16th. If you’re in the New York area, please join me for this ceremony. I’d like this honor for my father’s life to also be a celebration and tribute to the entire Marble Hill Community. We called it “the projects.” It was a beautiful experience growing up among families of all nationalities. We didn’t know it at the time that civil rights history was being made in the 1950s and 1960s by how we practiced racial integration.
