SUMMARY:The Long Road to Juneteenth Webinar
DESCRIPTION:As the oldest nationally recognized holiday commemorating emancipation\, Juneteenth reflects America’s long and often difficult pursuit of its founding ideals—life\, liberty\, and the pursuit of happiness. Yet how well do we as Americans understand the Civil War roots and historical origins of this day? \nJoin us on Wednesday\, June 18 at 3:00 p.m. ET for a conversation with Robert K.D. Colby about his award-winning book\, An Unholy Traffic: Slave Trading in the Civil War South. Colby reveals how and why the domestic slave trade endured through the Civil War—and how its eventual collapse paved the way for emancipatory celebrations like Juneteenth. JMC’s own resident historian and manager of network engagement\, Elliott Drago\, will moderate. \nWe’ll ask: who were some of these slave traders\, and how did the slave trade function during the war? What effects did the slave trade have on major Southern cities? How did Black Americans resist the slave trade during the war\, and how did their efforts impact the overall Confederate war effort? Which primary sources help us contextualize the end of the slave trade and the fraught realities Black Americans faced after the war? Professor Colby’s insights shed light on the turbulent realities of the slave trade\, deepening our understanding of Juneteenth’s significance and enduring power as a national holiday. \nRegister now for this upcoming webinar!

SUMMARY:Pursuits of Knowledge
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of Civic Season at Monticello\, join us for a conversation with bestselling historian and Pulitzer Prize finalist H.W. Brands on his book\, Founding Partisans: Hamilton\, Madison\, Jefferson\, Adams and the Brawling Birth of American Politics\, a revelatory history on the shocking emergence of vicious political division at the birth of the United States. \nTo the framers of the Constitution\, political parties were a fatal threat to republican virtues. They had suffered the consequences of partisan politics in Britain before the American Revolution\, and they wanted nothing similar for America. Yet parties emerged even before the Constitution was ratified\, and they took firmer root in the following decade. In Founding Partisans\, Brands crafts a fresh and lively narrative of the early years of the republic as the Founding Fathers fought one another with competing visions of what our nation would be.

SUMMARY:Juneteenth Sunrise Service
DESCRIPTION:To commemorate the triumphant spirit of the African American journey\, The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation will host its second annual Juneteenth Sunrise Service on Sunday\, June 15\, at 6 a.m. at the majestic Compton Oak. This landmark tree symbolizes life\, endurance\, shelter\, and joy. \nThe Juneteenth Sunrise Service is inspired by “Watch Night” – also referred to as “Freedom’s Eve” – a tradition in Black churches across the United States born out of the enslaved community’s “waiting for the hour” on the night of December 31\, 1862. With the coming dawn\, the Emancipation Proclamation went into effect on January 1\, 1863. \nThe first documented Sunrise Service was conducted for Easter in 1732 by the Moravian community in Herrnhut\, Germany. It appears that Moravians who came to the American colonies spread the tradition\, which was taken up by several denominations\, including Black and white churches. Southern Black churches sometimes combined the Easter Sunrise Service with an all-night vigil\, such as the Easter Rock\, which still survives in Louisiana. Sunrise Services in Black churches also celebrated other significant events\, like the fall of Wilmington\, North Carolina\, to Union forces in February 1865. \nSpecial keynote address by Dr. Daniel Black\, award-winning novelist\, professor\, and public speaker. \nWeather permitting.
