SUMMARY:Juneteenth: A Story of Freedom
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, Jun. 16\, 7 p.m. via Zoom\nPresenters: Earl Ijames\, Curator of African American\, Agriculture\, and Community History\, North Carolina Museum of History; Chrystal Regan\, Education Section Chief\, North Carolina Museum of History \nJuneteenth (short for “June Nineteenth”) marks the day in 1865 (June 19th) when federal troops arrived in Galveston\, Texas\, to take control of the state and ensure that all enslaved people were freed—a full two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed and more than two months after America’s Civil War “officially” ended. Juneteenth—a celebration that spread the word about the passage of the 13th Amendment\, which outlawed slavery in the United States—is an important milestone in the fight for equality and provides an opportunity for us all to pause and consider the meaning of freedom and to rededicate ourselves to telling stories that reflect all members of our community. \nPlease join Ijames and Regan in an insightful conversation to examine the history behind this holiday and reveal why its celebration is more important now than ever. They will also explore North Carolina’s special connections to the historic event and share details about Raleigh’s inaugural Juneteenth Celebration.

SUMMARY:How to Understand Power
DESCRIPTION:Power is like a language: the better we can understand\, interpret\, and “read” how power works\, the better mastery we achieve. If we think of it this way\, “fluency” in power helps us better plug into the power structure ourselves so we can work towards making our society “of\, by\, and for the people.” \nWatch this short video on how to understand power\, and then reflect on the questions.

SUMMARY:From Apathy to Agency: How to Reframe Elections for New Voters
