SUMMARY:History Conversations REWIND | Bread & Beauty
DESCRIPTION:with Claudia Kousoulas | pre-recorded virtual event | Just as the force and flow of ancient glaciers deposited soil and shaped hills\, our decisions about property\, policy\, family\, and food also shape the landscape. So much of what we value—a clean environment\, local food\, a diverse landscape\, and a varied economy—comes together in Montgomery County’s Agricultural Reserve. This talk\, based on Bread & Beauty: A Year in Montgomery County’s Agricultural Reserve\, will tell the history of the Reserve\, and its historical foodways\, from the foods (and drink) of the C&O Canal boatmen to the diversity captured in Elizabeth Ellicott Lea’s 1850 Domestic Cookery. Originally Aired May 2020.

SUMMARY:History Conversations REWIND | Mapping Segregation: Racial Restrictive Covenants in Montgomery County
DESCRIPTION:with John Liebertz | pre-recorded virtual event | For the majority of the twentieth century\, private and public sectors channeled and influenced development of the county based on race and ethnicity. Montgomery Planning built a mapping tool that illustrated historic patterns of segregation inside the Capital Beltway (I-495) by recording racial restrictive covenants in the land records. This presentation discusses the conclusions of our analysis\, how de facto and de jure segregation limited opportunities for people of color\, and the efforts by the Black community\, local activists\, and organizations to open the suburbs to all. Originally presented at the January 2023 History Conference.
