PROGRAM INFORMATION: This Questers’ Black History Month program is also a fundraiser for the Altadena

Historical Society that is playing a major role in the recovery and rebuilding of historic Altadena, particularly in

the Black community. A special thank you to Veronica Jones for her indispensable help in planning this

program and to our guests from the Altadena Historical Society attending tonight’s event. in the wake of the

devastating Eaton fire, the Altadena Historical Society needs to decontaminate their existing archives, as well as

reach out to displaced residents with remaining items of historic value to archive and digitize these resources,

ensuring these significant Altadena stories are not lost to history. The choice of Octavia E. Butler as our topic for

tonight’s program could not be more timely. An award-winning Black woman author of immense

accomplishment and reputation, she lived her formative years on the border of Pasadena and Altadena, and her

papers are deposited in the Octavia E. Butler Archives at the Huntington Library. Her powerful, prophetic voice

inscribed in her science fiction novels is more relevant than ever given the devastating effects of climate change

being realized today.

PRESENTER: Dr. Chi-ming Yang is a Professor of English at the University of Pennsylvania. She is an

accomplished scholar specializing in histories of race, empire, and East-West cultural exchange. Her recent

book on the childhood influences and writings of Octavia E. Butler, entitled Octavia E. Butler: H is for Horse,

has been published by the Oxford University Press and will be available for purchase in May 2025. According to

Dr. Yang, the figure of the horse, representing the contradictions of freedom and captivity, is central to Butler’s

creative thinking. Her book also includes interviews with Butler’s classmates at the John Muir High School in

Pasadena as well as Altadena community members.

MEETING LOCATION: This event will be held in the living room of Pasadena Heritage’s historic Blinn House,

located at 160 North Oakland Street, Pasadena CA. Free parking is available behind the Blinn House off

Madison Avenue. All parking spots are available to us. Light desserts will be served.
