Summary

Mayor Ebony A. Johnson read a proclamation declaring March 2025 as Women’s History Month and presented the document to Farrah Ameca during the Oberlin City Council meeting.
The proclamation, which the mayor read aloud, notes the historical and continuing contributions of American women “of every race, class, and ethnic background” in civic, economic and social life and urges the community to participate in programs and activities that honor those contributions.
Mayor Johnson signed the proclamation and said she was “deeply honored and pleased” to present it to Ameca. Ameca told the council she has known Johnson for 32 years and that receiving the proclamation was a meaningful moment; she also said she is running for the Oberlin municipal court judgeship and, if elected, would be the first Black woman elected to a judgeship in the county.
The presentation was recorded during the meeting’s agenda item for proclamations and ceremonial matters; no formal council action was required for the proclamation.
