SUMMARY:Juneteenth 2023 at Atlanta History Center
DESCRIPTION:Honor the past. Celebrate the future. \nOn June 19\, 1865\, a group of Union troops stopped in Galveston\, Texas\, to inform enslaved people that the Civil War was over\, the Confederacy was defeated\, and enslaved people in Texas were free. Although President Abraham Lincoln freed enslaved people held in the Confederate States through the Emancipation Proclamation of 1863\, many slaveholders in Texas refused to comply. Since 1865\, Southern citizens have observed Juneteenth in commemoration of that fateful day in Galveston. \nToday\, Juneteenth serves as a holiday to reflect on our nation’s history\, commemorate emancipation\, and look towards the future impact of Black culture and community. In 2021\, President Joe Biden signed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act into law\, making Juneteenth a federal holiday. \nJoin us as we celebrate Juneteenth 2023 (and Father’s Day) by honoring the history of Black genealogy and agricultural practices. This year’s event promises to be a truly immersive experience featuring live music\, powerful storytelling\, interactive crafts\, and delicious food. \nOur workshops and talks will provide valuable insights into the history of Juneteenth and offer tips on how to research your family tree and preserve family artifacts. \nThis program is part of Atlanta History Center’s celebration of the Civic Season\, a nationwide initiative encouraging historically-informed civic participation through a two-week activation between Juneteenth and July 4th.

SUMMARY:Up Stairs Lounge Fire 50th Anniversary Commemoration Weekend
DESCRIPTION:In its heyday\, the Up Stairs Lounge was an egalitarian gay space that functioned\, in many ways\, as a forerunner to modern queer safe havens. From October 1970 to June 1973\, the bar toasted Black as well as white gay customers in an era of brazen racial discrimination on nearby Bourbon Street. We will gather at this summit to mark half a century since the destruction of the Up Stairs Lounge and to preserve the memory of what occurred. We will consider what progress has been made since that time period and also how far we have to go. We will join in dialogue to contend with the newly resurgent\, international awareness of this once-neglected past. Lastly\, we will recognize and eulogize the lives of the 31 men and one woman who perished on a random Sunday through no choice or fault of their own. \nKick-off the Up Stairs Lounge Fire 50th Anniversary Commemoration Weekend at The Historic New Orleans Collection. In the Keynote Speech\, authors Johnny Townsend\, Robert Fieseler\, and Clayton Delery will discuss the tragedy and its complex legacy. The keynote will be followed by a community reception.
