Want to do something fun and history related this

Want to do something fun and history related this Memorial Day weekend? We have just the ticket.

Come hear Dr. Jill Titus, Associate Director of the Civil War Institute, speak at the Concord Museum at 2 pm on Sunday, May 28th.

Gettysburg 1963: Civil Rights & Black History in an Iconic American Town?
Like Concord, Gettysburg, Pennsylvania has a rich African American history that is often overshadowed by other aspects of the community’s history. This talk will put the town’s Black history front and center, highlighting the efforts of a small but determined population committed to fighting for a true “new birth of freedom,” in Lincoln’s words. Particular attention will be paid to the various ways in which Black Gettysburgians used the events for which their town was best known to further their campaign for freedom, particularly as civil rights campaigns, the Cold War, and commemoration of the centennial anniversary of the Civil War converged in the 1950s and 60s.

Free and open to the public, Light refreshments will be served. For more information, visit The Robbins House website at www.robbinshouse.org. Part of Freedom's Way Hidden Treasures events for the month of May.
