SUMMARY:Of Many Strands and The 1701 Project
DESCRIPTION:In June 2020\, members of The Yale Historical Review (YHR) founded The 1701 Project\, an initiative on racial injustice and social change. Although unrelated\, we draw inspiration from Nikole Hannah-Jones and her colleagues’ examination of slavery’s legacies in The 1619 Project. The 1701 Project (a nod to the year of Yale’s founding) analyzes our university’s and our nation’s racist histories through an ongoing series of articles\, interviews\, and art. We have extended this conversation beyond New Haven\, partnering with publications from other institutions across the country. This coalition\, titled Of Many Strands (the name borrowed from the epilogue of Ralph Ellison’s The Invisible Man)\, has to create a central online repository for our journals. The 1701 Project and Of Many Strands seek to foster dialogue about our history in order to change our society today.

SUMMARY:Interpreting African American History: Q & A with Richard M. Josey

SUMMARY:Memory\, Mourning\, Mobilization: Part II: A More Perfect Union - The Modern-Day Struggle for Racial Equality

SUMMARY:Seizing Freedom Podcast
DESCRIPTION:Ending slavery in America required so much more than official declarations and battlefield victories.\nFreedom gets built up over time—through a billion tiny\, everyday acts. It’s there in the chance to enlist and fight for a cause. It’s there in the effort to reunite families torn apart by the cruelty of slave trading. It’s there in the right to learn to read or found a church or decide how you want to make a living. And it’s there in the insistence on the legal recognition of the right to do all these things. \nThat’s the freedom you’ll hear about on this podcast\, and you’ll hear about it directly from the people who seized it. All of the stories on this show are drawn from archives of voices from American history that have been muted time and time again.

SUMMARY:Why It Matters: Civic and Electoral Participation
DESCRIPTION:We are regularly exposed to the message that in a democracy\, such as the United States\, our voices matter. We are encouraged to vote—to participate in the electoral process—to be civically engaged. But what does that mean in a climate where so many of us express apathy and distrust in the system? In an increasingly polarized democracy\, how do we practice true exchange and listening? \nWe are proud to share with you Why It Matters—a collaboration that joins three strands of robust civic engagement: deep dive discussions\, the power of youth\, and culture and creativity.
