    History took center stage on Sunday when Atlas World Records presented two World Record awards to teachers Gwendolyn W. Ebron (left) and Anita Lewis (right) at Enon Tabernacle Baptist Church in Cedarbrook. The records are for the longest history lesson and for the first continuous lesson on African, African American and African Diaspora history. The two educators completed an extraordinary 31-hour teaching marathon at the church in February.
