SUMMARY:Bookworm #85 - Fellow Focus with Ben Pokross and Emily Dixon-Magness "Native American Stories Reclaimed from the Archive" in recognition of Native American Heritage Month
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a conversation with Clements visiting research fellows Ben Pokross and Emily Dixon-Magness as they highlight Indigenous perspectives and share their work with Native American history resources at the Clements. Pokross examines how nineteenth-century historians\, especially in the Great Lakes region\, sought to record the history of Indigenous peoples. Dixon focuses on Cherokee women’s political leadership and the broader Cherokee political strategies between 1754 and 1761.

SUMMARY:Bookworm #76 - Author Conversation with Laura Helton
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, the author\, Laura Helton\, will discuss their recent book\, Scattered and Fugitive Things: How Black Collectors Created Archives and Remade History. \nThis book tells the story of a remarkable generation of early twentieth-century bibliophiles\, librarians\, and scrapbook makers who dedicated themselves to documenting the history of African American life at a time when dominant institutions cast doubt on the value or even the idea of Black history. Traveling from the parlors of the urban north to HBCU reading rooms and branch libraries in the Jim Crow south\, Scattered and Fugitive Things draws on overlooked sources–such as book lists and card catalogs–to reveal the risks these collectors took to create Black archives. The book also explores the social life of collecting\, highlighting the communities that used these collections from the South Side of Chicago to Roanoke\, Virginia. In each case\, archiving was alive in the present\, a site of intellectual experiment\, creative abundance\, and political possibility. \nRegistration for this free event is required.
