Virtual discussion: wake the hidden history of women-led slave revolts by rebecca hall
由珍妮特·艾琳·琼斯博士主持的讨论.d. happold professor of history and ethnic studies; director, 19世纪研究课程, 内布拉斯加大学林肯分校
Women warriors planned and led revolts on slave ships during the Middle Passage. They fought their enslavers throughout the Americas. 然后他们就从历史中抹去了.
韦克讲述了“引人入胜”的故事(安吉拉Y. 戴维斯博士的故事. Rebecca Hall, a historian, granddaughter of slaves, and a woman haunted by the legacy of slavery. The accepted history of slave revolts has always told her that enslaved women took a back seat. 但丽贝卡决定深入调查, and her journey takes her through old court records, 奴隶船船长的航海日志, 摇摇欲坠的信件, and even the forensic evidence from the bones of enslaved women from the “negro burying ground” uncovered in Manhattan. 她发现到处都是女战士.
Using a “remarkable blend of passion and fact, 行动与反思”(美国国家公共电台), Rebecca constructs the likely pasts of Adono and Alele, women rebels who fought for freedom during the Middle Passage, as well as the stories of women who led slave revolts in Colonial New York. We also follow Rebecca’s own story as the legacy of slavery shapes her life, both during her time as a successful attorney and later as a historian seeking the past that haunts her.

Hybrid Lecture: the women who built omaha: A Bold and remarkable history
Dr. Eileen Wirth, professor emeritus of journalism at creighton university, author
Omaha’s first female tycoon will probably never make the local 业务 Hall of Fame because she made her fortune in the world’s oldest profession. 但是安娜·威尔逊, 奥马哈最有名的夫人, invested her profits from her downtown brothel in real estate then left them to charity.
She’s one of many women leaders profiled by Wirth, who describes how Omaha’s women not only founded or co-founded top businesses like Nebraska Furniture Mart (Rose Blumkin) and Mutual of Omaha (Mabel Criss) but how wealthy widows invested their money in starting signature local institutions such as Creighton University and Joslyn Art Museum. This intriguing presentation is based on Wirth’s book of the same title.
