Historical Note
Shirley Graves Kennedy grew up in Chicago, IL and spent most of her early twenties traveling while her husband was in the
Air Force. In the early 1970s their family settled in Goleta, CA where Kennedy earned her Bachelor's and Master's degrees
in Political Science at UC Santa Barbara. Subsequently, in 1986 she also completed a Doctorate in Political Science in Government
at Claremont Graduate School (now Claremont Graduate University).
After Claremont, she became a faculty member in the UCSB Department of Black Studies, teaching Political Science, Black Studies
and Constitutional Law, as well as serving for over ten years as the Center for Black Studies Community Affairs coordinator.
Throughout those years, she strove to connect the university with the greater community and build bridges between "town and
gown," as she called it. She believed that scholarship and research must ultimately lead to societal transformation and worked
relentlessly to transform the Santa Barbara community with her commitment to social justice, activism, and democracy.
Her efforts in Santa Barbara County included the widespread recognition of the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday, founding the
Santa Barbara Building Bridges Coalition, planning an exhibition of the Henrietta Marie slave ship at the Karpeles Manuscript
Library in downtown Santa Barbara, and lobbying for the incorporation of the city of Goleta.
Her work has been recognized with awards and honors from peers and students on campus, and the wider Santa Barbara community
- such as The Santa Barbara Independent's Local Hero Award, the Santa Barbara News-Press' Lifetime Achievement Award, and
recognition from the County of Santa Barbara, the State of California and the Santa Barbara branch of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored People.
