York, Pennsylvania -- As part of Black History Month, the Governor's Advisory Commission on African-American Affairs will be touring the state in February discussing various pertinent issues. The initiative is entitled "29 Schools in 29 Days," and will be coming to York College of Pennsylvania on February 11.
