President’s Message: The Year Ahead
As we celebrate our 125th year, I want to briefly look back at the year 1893. In the United Kingdom, the first issue of the Police Review and Parade Gossip Magazine was published and would run until 2011. In South Africa, Mahatma Gandhi’s first act of civil disobedience occurred. In the United States, Lizzie Borden was acquitted for the 1892 murders of her parents. In Georgia, the first state anti-lynching statute was approved. In May of that year, the Chicago World’s Fair would begin.
