SUMMARY:Redefining Heritage: The Endurance of Folklore
DESCRIPTION:Human beings have always sought to understand the chaos of the world through myth and folklore. Join us on Wednesday\, December 21st for a free virtual lecture and open discussion to explore why residents of Essex County use the powerful tool of communal storytelling to explain the unexplainable and understand the unknowable.\n\nREGISTER HERE: https://enduranceoffolklore.eventbrite.com\n\nLauren McCormack\, Executive Director of the Marblehead Museum\, will discuss how the robed Wizard Dimond used “magic” to calm stormy seas and bring sailors safely home – and why his neighbors embraced these skills instead of reacting with mass hysteria and hangings\, such as was seen in Salem merely 20 years before. Miranda Aisling\, Head of Education & Engagement for the Cape Ann Museum\, will relate why old tales of a mysterious sea serpent off the shores of Gloucester have been integrated into modern renovations of the museum. Come join us in exploring how the power of story helps us learn about the history of the Heritage Area and feel more comfortable in the world around us.\n\nRedefining Heritage is an ongoing discussion series presented by Essex Heritage. This program invites audiences to participate in a conversation about the natural\, cultural\, and historic resources of the Essex National Heritage Area. Heritage professionals\, regional advocates\, businesspeople\, and other experts present new perspectives on topics that are often overlooked or seen as unchanging. Experts engage with the audience in thinking about how they can be more actively involved in areas of heritage such as conservation\, arts advocacy\, expanded historical awareness\, and other themes relevant to a more inclusive and engaged community. In our evolving and diverse world\, it is especially important for all of us to understand important issues from a variety of angles to be more informed citizens.\n\nThis program is supported by a grant from the Bridge Street Fund\, a special initiative of Mass Humanities.

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 >>
