Good Grit Magazine: Night of Pain, Days of Honor

The Story of the Rhythm Night Club Memorial Museum

I'm happy to share my article about the Rhythm Night Club Memorial Museum. It will appear in the May 2022 issue of Good Grit Magazine (www.goodgritmag.com). It is titled, “Night of Pain, Days of Honor: The Story of the Rhythm Night Club Memorial Museum.”

This is the tragic story of the Rhythm Night Club fire that killed more than 200 people, including Walter Barnes and his band members, on April 23, 1940, in Natchez, Miss. This article shows what Monroe and Betty Sago are doing to tell the story of the fire and to keep the legacy of the victims – and survivors –alive.

NOTE: If you have any problems viewing or downloading the article, please send me your email address and I will rush you a pdf copy of the article.
