SUMMARY:Virtual Book Talk:  Annette Gordon Reed\, On Juneteenth
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate Juneteenth throughout June with virtual and onsite programming with the Lewis Museum and its community partners. More details to come. \nAnnette Gordon-Reed will be in virtual conversation with Lawrence Jackson about her new book\, On Juneteenth.  In partnership with the Enoch Pratt Library. \nIn ON JUNETEENTH\, Gordon-Reed combines her own scholarship with a personal and intimate reflection of an overlooked holiday that has suddenly taken on new significance in a post-George Floyd world. As Gordon-Reed writes\, “It is staggering that there is no date commemorating the end of slavery in the United States.” Yet\, Texas—the last state to free its slaves—has long acknowledged the moment on June 19\, 1865\, when US Major General Gordon Granger proclaimed from his headquarters in Galveston that slavery was no longer the law of the land. \nON JUNETEENTH takes us beyond the stories of Gordon-Reed’s childhood\, providing a Texan’s view of the long\, non-traditional road to a national recognition of the holiday. Gordon-Reed presents the saga of a frontier defined as much by the slave plantation owner as the mythic cowboy\, rancher\, or oilman. Reworking the “Alamo” narrative\, she shows that enslaved Blacks—in addition to Native Americans\, Anglos\, and Tejanos—formed the state’s makeup from the 1500s\, well before Africans arrived in Jamestown. A commemoration of Juneteenth and the fraught legacies of slavery that still persist\, On Juneteenth is a stark reminder that the fight for equality is ongoing. \nAnnette Gordon-Reed is the Carl M. Loeb University Professor at Harvard University. Author of the Pulitzer Prize–winning The Hemingses of Monticello: An American Family\, she lives in New York and Cambridge\, Massachusetts.   \nLawrence Jackson  is a Bloomberg Distinguished Professor of English and History at Johns Hopkins University.  He has written a memoir on race and family history called My Father’s Name: A Black Virginia Family after the Civil War. \nClick Here to Register. \n \n

SUMMARY:Black Wall Street and Beyond Series: Understanding Economic Development for Youth/The Burning: Black Wall Street and the Tulsa Massacre of 1921 - Virtual Event
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with Kaiser Permanente\, the first of three events will feature Hillary Beard\, author of the adaptation The Burning: Black Wall Street and the Tulsa Massacre of 1921. Ms. Beard will discuss her new book adaption for youth. \nThis year marks the 100th anniversary of the historical events that led to the destruction of the Greenwood community of Tulsa\, Oklahoma. Greenwood was home to a thriving commercial and residential district respectfully known as Black Wall Street. The community was home to businesses\, including grocery stores\, banks\, libraries\, and much more; one of the most affluent African-American communities in the country. The newly released book The Burning: Black Wall Street and the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921\, tells the other story- how a generation of Black Americans just recently removed from enslavement\, built prosperous\, wealthy community of 10\,000 with its own financial institutions\, educational system\, 600 entrepreneurs\, churches\, hotels\, movie theatres\, and more. These events tell a story of how generational wealth in the Black community could’ve been built and fostered. \nThe Black Wall Street and Beyond Series will highlight the lessons learned from this once thriving and self-sufficient community and apply it to conditions of today. It will also emphasize why we must work to increase opportunities to build back wealth into Black communities and families through investing in the stock market and entrepreneurship. This series will serve as a springboard for teachers to develop follow up lesson plans to educate students about the history Black Walls Street and economic development. \nHilary Beard is an award-winning writer and an expert in book collaborations. She has partnered with many celebrities\, experts\, and public figures\, including Katherine Johnson on her book Reaching for the Moon: The Autobiography of NASA Mathematician Katherine Johnson. \n  \nSuitable for youth (12+)\, educators and general public. \n\n\nClick HERE to register.

SUMMARY:A Just Reckoning: Transitional Justice and Lynching in Maryland
DESCRIPTION:Maryland today has a unique and historic opportunity. It alone\, among all states\, has made a deliberate decision to confront its dark history of racial terror lynching. Even before the wave of protests touched off by the murders of George Floyd\, Breonna Taylor and others\, Maryland was positioning itself for this reckoning. In 2019 the state legislature unanimously passed an act creating the Maryland Lynching Truth and Reconciliation Commission (MLTRC)\, the first and only one of its kind in the country. \nThe Commission is tasked to: \n\nlearn the truth about the 40 known racial terror lynchings in the state\nassess the damage these unsolved murders continue to wreak\nmake recommendations for addressing the legacy of lynching\nbegin to imagine what a project of racial reconciliation might look like\n\nJoin the International Center for Transitional Justice\,  the Reginald F.

SUMMARY:Book Talk:  Franchise - The Golden Arches in Black America
DESCRIPTION:Often blamed for the rising rates of obesity and diabetes among black Americans\, fast food restaurants like McDonald’s have long symbolized capitalism’s villainous effects on our nation’s most vulnerable communities. But how did fast food restaurants so thoroughly saturate black neighborhoods in the first place? \nJoin the Lewis Museum with Dr. Marcia Chatelain  with her new book\, Franchise: The Golden Arches in Black America for some of those answers. In Franchise\, acclaimed historian Marcia Chatelain uncovers a surprising history of cooperation among fast food companies\, black capitalists\, and civil rights leaders\, who—in the troubled years after King’s assassination—believed they found an economic answer to the problem of racial inequality. From civil rights to Ferguson\, Franchise reveals the untold history of how fast food became one of the greatest generators of black wealth in America. \nDr. Marcia Chatelain is a Professor of history and African American studies at Georgetown University. The author of South Side Girls: Growing Up in the Great Migration (2015)\, Chatelain is a scholar of African American life and culture. Her most recent book is Franchise: The Golden Arches in Black America. \nClick HERE to register.

SUMMARY:Women's History Program: The Struggle Is Eternal: Gloria Richardson and Black Liberation
DESCRIPTION:Join author Joseph Fitzgerald in a discussion  on Gloria Richardson\, one of the most influential and unsung leaders  that impacted the Civil Rights Movement. As the leader of the Cambridge Nonviolent Action Committee (CNAC)\, a multifaceted liberation campaign formed to target segregation and racial inequality in Cambridge\, Maryland\, Richardson advocated for economic justice and tactics beyond nonviolent demonstrations. The Struggle Is Eternal: Gloria Richardson and Black Liberation explores the largely forgotten but deeply significant life of this central figure and her determination to improve the lives of black people. Fitzgerald reveals how Richardson’s human rights activism extended far beyond Cambridge and how her leadership style and vision for liberation were embraced by the younger activists of the black power movement\, who would carry the struggle on throughout the late 1960s and into the 1970s.  \nJoseph R. Fitzgerald is assistant professor of history and political science at Cabrini University. His areas of focus include critical race feminism and the civil rights and black power waves of the modern black liberation movement. \nProgram Time: 7:00 PM EST \nClick Here to Register.  \n
