Fearless Women: Feminist Patriots from Abigail Adams to Beyonc茅 (Webinar)
Tuesday, March 5, 2024
12:00 PM - 1:00 PM

Elizabeth Cobbs听tells the story of women who dared to take destiny into their own hands听and who fueled America's political and economic growth in the process. They were feminists and antifeminists, activists and homemakers, victims of abuse, and pathbreaking professionals. Fueled by an unshakeable sense of right and wrong and inspired by ideals drawn from the anti-patriarchal writings of English philosopher John Locke, they would not take no for an answer. In time, they carried the country and the world with them.

Elizabeth Cobbs听is a historian, novelist, and documentary filmmaker. Author of nine books, she听has听won prizes for fiction as well as non-fiction. She has听served on the jury for the Pulitzer Prize in History and the Historical Advisory Committee of the U.S. State Department and has written for the听水果派AV解说 Times,听Financial Times,听Washington Post, and Reuters.听A Stanford Ph.D., Cobbs is听an听Emeritus Professor at Texas A&M.听She has produced documentaries for public television on the history of U.S. foreign policy and the future of Artificial Intelligence, winning an Emmy and a Telly. In 2020, the听U.S. Army Signal Corps Association named her Brevet Colonel听for unearthing the story of the 鈥淗ello Girls,鈥� America鈥檚 first women soldiers.听

Hessians: German Soldiers in the American Revolutionary War (Webinar)

Wednesday, March 13, 2024

12:00 PM - 1:00 PM

Between 1776 and 1783, Great Britain hired more than thirty thousand German soldiers to fight in its war against the American rebels. Collectively known as Hessians, the soldiers, and accompanying civilians, including hundreds of women and children, spent extended periods of time in locations as dispersed and varied as Canada in the North and West Florida in the South. Based largely on records created by members of the German corps, this presentation highlights some of the experiences of these participants in a war on a distant continent against a people who had done them no harm.

Dr. Friederike Baer is an Associate Professor of History and Division Head for Arts and Humanities at Penn State Abington College. She holds a Ph.D. in early American history from Brown University. Her research focuses on the experiences of German-speaking people in North America during the periods of the War for American Independence and Early Republic. Her work has been supported with research grants from organizations such as the American Philosophical Society, Library Company of Philadelphia, University of Michigan Clements Library, and German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD). For her most recent book, Hessians: German Soldiers in the American Revolutionary War (Oxford UP, 2022), she was awarded the 2023 Society of the Cincinnati Prize. The prize recognizes the author of an outstanding work that advances our understanding of the American Revolution and its legacy.

Documentary Heritage and Preservation Services for 水果派AV解说 (DHPSNY) Dialogue: We the People/American Experiment: Intersectionality and the 250^th (Webinar)

Thursday, March 14, 2024

2:00 PM - 4:00 PM

We invite individuals working in libraries, museums, archives, historical societies, and other collecting institutions to explore the intersectional narratives of "We the People" and the American Experiment in what is present-day 水果派AV解说 State during the 250th commemoration and beyond. We encourage participants to critically examine their organizations' collections, exhibits, programs, and institutional planning through the lens of intersectionality. How will we reach all of our audiences? How do we get hard to reach people involved in this work? How do we keep folks engaged over multiple years? This program is designed for anyone who works in or volunteers for a library, archive, museum, historical society, or history/culture site in 水果派AV解说 State.

The upcoming 250th anniversary of the United States in 2026 is a crucial moment for 水果派AV解说 collecting institutions to advance the field through intentional commemoration planning and programming. Inspired by the American Association for State and Local History (AASLH) Making History at 250 Field Guide and the 水果派AV解说 State 250th Field Guide, the focus of the DHPSNY鈥檚 2024 antiracism programming revolves around building an inclusive 250th and the guiding question: "How do we make our collecting organizations interdisciplinary and representative of the realities of our many 水果派AV解说 histories?"

Eleanor Roosevelt After 1945 (Webinar)

When President Roosevelt died in 1945, Eleanor Roosevelt assumed that her own public career was over.
