YADA students, teachers, and staff kick off Black History Month by celebrating the life of Ms. Gwen Ifill, a pioneer for African Americans in journalism. Thursday, January 30 the USPS honored Gwen Ifill in the Forever stamp dedication ceremony as they unveiled the 43 stamp in the Black Heritage collection.

Ifill was an esteemed journalist who worked at the NewsHour for 17 years, covering eight presidential campaigns and moderating two vice-presidential debates. She was also the moderator and managing editor of Washington Week. In 2016, Ifill died from complications of cancer at age 61.
As NPR's Eric Deggans wrote:

"She developed a reputation as a tough, incisive reporter who was serious about the work but never took herself too seriously. She achieved a lot of firsts. In 1999, she became the first black woman to host a national political talk show on TV - PBS' 'Washington Week In Review.' She was the first black woman to moderate a vice presidential debate in 2004, returning for the 2008 VP debate.
