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: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:Read About Monument Avenue
DESCRIPTION:At the American Civil War Museum\, we see the complex\, messy\, and multifaceted history the monuments on Monument Avenue represent. Ultimately\, history is never static\, but always present. Each generation asks different questions of the past\, and each generation finds different answers to make sense of the world it occupies. Our generation is no different. We believe that conversation rooted in evidence-based history is the best guide to discerning our place\, and our future\, in an alive and evolving narrative. To help explore the complex history of Monument Avenue\, the Museum offers a document reader\, an online exhibit\, a select reading list\, and a blog series.
