SUMMARY:Peaceful transfers of power? Not a guarantee in early America
DESCRIPTION:Journalists and commentators have invoked historic precedents to contextualize the January 6th insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. While unprecedented in many ways\, those events are also part of a long history of bitter partisanship and political violence in the United States. Thomas Jefferson’s election in 1800 offers an example: the peaceful transfer of power was anything but a foregone conclusion. Historian Lindsay M. Chervinsky discusses historic examples of sedition\, violence\, and mob action in the early decades of American history.

SUMMARY:Holocaust and America's Response to Other Genocides
DESCRIPTION:A resource developed in partnership with the Library of Congress\, these materials look at the issue of genocide.\nFollowing its defeat in World War I and the punitive peace treaty that followed\, Germany fell into a deep and extended economic depression. Nationalist leaders found a willing audience when they looked for scapegoats who could be blamed for the country’s troubles. Adolf Hitler’s National Socialist Party claimed that the Jewish people were traitors during the war and a blight on the nation. Hitler claimed that the Aryan race (northern Europeans) were genetically superior to all others and that the Jews were inferior. When he rose to power in the early 1930s\, he began to impose punitive policies to punish and shame the Jews.\nWhile America knew about pre-war Nazi discrimination against the Jews\, it did little to protest or demand an end to it. There was a heated debate in the nation about American involvement in or isolation from European disputes. The U.S. refused to expand its immigration policies to accept more Jews fleeing from Nazi persecution. \nReflect on the following questions:\nWhat was the Holocaust?\nHow did America respond to the Holocaust?\nHow has America responded to other genocides?

SUMMARY:30 Stories for 30 Years
DESCRIPTION:As the American Independence Museum marks its 30th anniversary\, we are taking this opportunity to examine our interpretations of the past and introduce a 21st-century view of ten historic items in our collection. Each item presented includes a traditional interpretation and a contemporary interpretation to highlight the ways our understanding of history has evolved over time. By revisiting these interpretations\, we are expanding the story to include Americans who have not always received recognition. We hope that this exhibition will show you how one object can tell many different stories.

SUMMARY:#1 in Civil Rights Virtual Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:On September 22\, 1964\, a banner headline in The St. Louis American proclaimed St. Louis as the “Number One City in Civil Rights.” In the article\, Judge Nathan B. Young argued that St. Louis—more than any other city in the US—was pre-eminent in the country’s struggle for civil rights based on the number of Supreme Court cases that originated in St. Louis and the city’s long history of protest that led to significant change. \nToday the claim that St. Louis is the most important city in US civil rights history may seem surprising\, but that’s because so much of St. Louis’s activist past has been forgotten. The country’s civil rights history has too often been written about a limited number of places during a limited period of time. In the process\, cities such as St. Louis have largely been left out of the national narrative. “#1 in Civil Rights” reclaims that history. \nThis exhibit doesn’t aim to prove that St. Louis is the most important city in the country’s civil rights history\, but it does argue that St. Louis’s freedom struggle is more substantive than is usually recognized—and that it’s too important to be ignored. \nThe content included in this digital experience was part of a larger exhibit entitled “#1 in Civil Rights: The African American Freedom Struggle in St. Louis.” The exhibit was created by the Missouri History Museum and was on display there from March 2017 to April 2018.

SUMMARY:Visit Freedom House Museum in Alexandria\, Virginia
DESCRIPTION:Visit the newly reopened Freedom House Museum at 1315 Duke Street. This site is what remains of a large complex dedicated to trafficking thousands of Black men\, women\, and children from 1828 – 1861. This Museum honors the lives and experiences of the enslaved and free Black people who lived in and were trafficked through Alexandria\, Virginia and now includes three floors of powerful exhibits that showcase Alexandria’s Black history and the Black experience in America. Slavery\, race-based laws\, and racial terror erased and diminished African American history and contributions from the national narrative; however\, this Museum seeks to reframe white supremacist history. The Museum is open Thursdays and Fridays 11 a.m. – 4 p.m.\, Saturdays 11 a.m. – 5 p.m.\, and Sundays and Mondays 1 – 5 p.m.
