SUMMARY:History Conversations REWIND | The Better Angels: Five Women Who Changed–and were changed by–the American Civil War
DESCRIPTION:with Bob Plumb | pre-recorded virtual event | Join us as Robert Plumb discusses five remarkable women who made important contributions to the Union cause at various stages before\, during\, and after the critical years of the American Civil War. The singular actions of Clare Barton\, Julia Ward Howe\, Sarah Josepha Hale\, Harriet Beecher Stowe\, and Harriet Tubman led to their prominence during the war\, and launched them into successful public roles following the conflict. Plumb will cover highlights of the women’s contributions\, their legacies\, and their defining qualities such as courage\, self-assurance\, and persistence which led to their successes. Plumb’s book\, The Better Angels\, published by Potomac Books\, an imprint of University of Nebraska Press\, is now available on Amazon. Originally aired May 2020. Recording available June 8 – 14

SUMMARY:History Conversations REWIND | Separate but UNequal: The History of School Segregation in Montgomery County
DESCRIPTION:with Ralph Buglass | pre-recorded virtual event | Education\, denied to the enslaved\, was one of the highest priorities of emancipated African Americans. But in Montgomery County\, where slavery existed\, public education was not extended to Black children until a decade after it was instituted for White children. Even then\, the practice of “separate but equal” schools was anything but equal\, and no Black high school was built until well into the 20th century. A surprising number of these African American schools used during segregation still exist in the county\, including several erected through a partnership between Booker T. Washington and philanthropist Julius Rosenwald that helped improve Black education all over the South. Originally aired February 2025. Recording available June 15 – 21
