SUMMARY:The Fire of a Movement: The Future of America's Past
DESCRIPTION:What lessons might we learn from the stories of the families of the victims\, survivors\, and witnesses of the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire?\nThe Triangle Shirtwaist Fire prompted many legislative and workplace-related reforms that still help keep workers safe. But there is also the human side of the story which\, like most tragedies\, can often get lost in media coverage that follows political or social unrest. Instead\, these stories are remembered by the friends and family of the victims and are an important part of history.

Hosted by Dr. Crystal Moten and Dr. Krystal Klingenberg\, the show highlights why Black feminist critique remains crucial to understanding the times we are living in and how we might look to the past for an understanding of our future.

SUMMARY:RECLAMATION
DESCRIPTION:The National Museum of Women in the Arts (NMWA) presents RECLAMATION: Recipes\, Remedies\, and Rituals\, a new participatory exhibition featuring nine interdisciplinary artists. Conceived as a virtual experience that recontextualizes the traditional role of women in providing sustenance and healing\, RECLAMATION also features content submitted by the public\, interwoven with the artists’ work. \nRECLAMATION is an evolving exhibition and ingredient archive that examines food as a creative medium for visual art and a connective tool for exploring intergenerational and intercultural experiences. \nThe exhibition centers around a kitchen table\, the central domestic object for gatherings of family and friends. Nine artists will activate their own kitchen tables\, sharing photographs\, videos and stories about how they use this domestic object. These intimate glimpses into the artists’ homes simultaneously reveal a work of art and the process by which it is made. \nThrough a digital ingredient archive\, developed in partnership with the Family Arts Museum and Ten-Fifteen Media\, online visitors can participate in the exhibition by sharing recipes\, anecdotes\, photos and reflections related to food. Submissions will be layered with the artists’ work\, creating a dynamic portal for exploring the interconnectedness of food and the communal nature of nourishing and curing the body. In this way\, both artists and viewers will use those materials to honor women’s roles in the practices and traditions surrounding food. \nThe exhibition also features interviews and content from the Curative Collective\, a group of partners that focus on food—from advocacy and social justice work\, to healing and restorative self-care. These organizations help ensure that the exhibition reflects and serves their communities while sharing their arts and social change resources with NMWA’s audience. Examples of Curative Collective organizations are Black Magick Sisters\, Dreaming Out Loud\, Mutual Aid Apothecary\, and STRŌB Apothecary\, among others.

SUMMARY:THE SANDERS-BULLITT FAMILY PAPERS
DESCRIPTION:A reworking of the Bullitt family papers to highlight the people enslaved by the Bullitt family on the Oxmoor plantation and the Cottonwood plantation from the late eighteenth century to the early twentieth century. One of these families includes the Sanders family\, headed by Eliza Sanders and her husband\, Jim Sanders. While not all people enslaved by the Bullitt family were tied by blood to the Sanders family\, the digitization and exhibition of these sources aim to recognize all of the people and families enslaved by the Bullitt family and bring academic attention to the complex community they fostered among each other while in bondage. This digital collection only represents a small\, selective portion of the Bullitt Family Papers\, and you can access the finding aid for the entire collection here: https://filsonhistorical.org/research-doc/bullittfamilyoxmoor-html/.

SUMMARY:Watch the National Youth Summit on Japanese American Incarceration
DESCRIPTION:During World War II\, the United States government forcibly removed over 120\,000 Japanese Americans from the Pacific Coast. These individuals\, two-thirds of them U.S. citizens\, were sent to ten camps built throughout the western interior of the United States. Many would spend the next three years living under armed guard\, behind barbed wire. In this webcast\, the panelists explored this period in American history and considered how fear and prejudice can upset the delicate balance between the rights of citizens and the power of the state.
