Remembering Harold Burke
Remembering Harold Burke The CBTU family suffered a major loss since our last convention in 2021. Harold Burke, who served as the Audio-Video Manager at CBTU conventions and conferences, joined the ancestors last October. For 30 years, Harold oversaw the live presentation and recording of most convention speakers, panels and awards dinners. He loved being a part of serious Black working people taking care of serious business. Harold's expertise and his warm, infectious smile will be sorely missed by the AV crew, the convention staff and the delegates. We love and respect him so much. We honor Harold's legacy at this 51st International CBTU Convention by upholding his standard of excellence.
