Join Museum of History staff Regan and Ijames for this special Juneteenth edition of the Community Class Series, as well as the launch of the Capital City’s 2022 Juneteenth Celebration.
American slavery and American freedom are a shared history, and the actions of ordinary men and women, demanding freedom, have transformed our nation. Learn about the struggles and triumphs of three freedom seekers from North Carolina’s antebellum and Reconstruction periods: David Walker, Harriet Jacobs, and Abraham Galloway. Through literary efforts, military service, and political representation, these abolitionists and activists created new visions of freedom that have benefited all Americans.
