Landmark Lecture: Enslaved: Peoples of the Historical Slave Trade

May 9, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm EDT

Free

Join Walter Hawthorne of Michigan State University and Daryle Williams of the University of California-Riverside for a dynamic overview of Peoples of the Historical Slave Trade (Enslaved.org), an open-source, open-access online discovery platform that has opened new ways to understand individual and community life experiences in Mid-Atlantic slave societies. Historical record and data-driven approaches to history have rendered enslaved people nameless. This platform uses historic data collection to recover, aggregate and make accessible the names and life stores of enslaved people.

Support for 2023 Landmark Lecture Series is made possible with an Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) Inspire! grant [IGSM-249243-OMS-21]

Additional information can be found at: www.imls.gov. The views, findings, conclusions or recommendations expressed in this lecture do not necessarily represent those of the IMLS.
