SUMMARY:Cruising Salem Harbor with Reverend William Bentley
DESCRIPTION:During this boat tour follow up to historian Donald Friary’s virtual presentation of Reverend William Bentley’s Salem Harbor\, you’ll explore the harbor with Reverend Bentley and learn more about the way he experienced it. According to his diary\, Reverend William Bentley seemed to be everywhere. \nHe saw Salem’s ship captains departing for and returning from voyages around the world to bring exotic goods and new ideas to their home port. Mr. Bentley saw beached whales\, shipwrecks\, a seven-foot shark\, seals and porpoises\, lobsters and crabs. He noted ropewalks\, shipyards\, cooperages\, and fish flakes\, as well as privateers and smugglers. He was saddened by drownings and marveled at the frozen harbor. He knew all the islands—Bakers\, the Miseries\, Orne’s\, Eagle\, Cat\, Ram—and impediments to navigation—Half-Way Rock\, Kettle Bottom\, Abbott’s Rocks\, Bowditch’s Ledge. \nAbout Donald Friary \nDonald Friary is Director Emeritus of Historic Deerfield\, Inc. and past President of the Colonial Society of Massachusetts.

SUMMARY:Teaching Hidden Histories Workshop 5
DESCRIPTION:Join us on May 7 as we continue to explore “The Struggle for Liberty\, Equality\, and Property: Examining Resistance to Exclusionary Policies Against Black People in Essex County”. \nThe history of Black people’s experiences in Essex County\, MA\, including institutional integration\, community activism\, and hard-fought access to fundamental rights\, offers a rich set of stories for our students to explore. In this workshop\, we examine how these experiences exemplify a larger history of structural policies of exclusion and prejudice\, but also perseverance and change. \nJoin us as we work to answer many questions about this history and its relevance today\, including: \n\nWhat are some exemplary stories of Black people’s experiences in our region that highlight larger themes of exclusion and the fight for access?\nHow can primary sources from the region’s past as well as contemporary voices in the local Black community inform our understanding of how to approach this topic with our students?\n\nContributors: \nDr. Kabria Baumgartner\, Dean’s Associate Professor of History and Africana Studies and \nAssociate Director of Public History\, Northeastern University; principal investigator\, African Americans in Essex County\, Massachusetts: An Annotated Guide ; author of In Pursuit of Knowledge: Black Women and Educational Activism in Antebellum America \nDr. Kerri Greenidge\, Mellon Assistant Professor\, Department of Studies in Race\, Colonialism\, and Diaspora\, Tufts University; author of Black Radical\, The Life and Times of William Monroe Trotter. \nDoneeca Thurston\, Director\, Lynn Museum and Lynn Arts \nEdward Carson\, Dean of Multicultural Education and member of the History Department \nThe Governor’s Academy\, Byfield\, Massachusetts \nMore information at: https://usingessexhistory.org/teachinghiddenhistories  \n\n\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE >>
