SUMMARY:Baltimore’s Civil Rights Heritage: Shaping the National Movement
DESCRIPTION:Baltimore’s airport is named after Civil Rights giant Thurgood Marshall\, and plaques in Fell’s Point show where Frederick Douglass took his stand against slavery and for equality. In addition to these well-known leaders\, dozens of other Baltimoreans committed themselves to struggle for Civil Rights and helped shape The Movement locally and nationally.

Clarence Mitchell led the NAACPs efforts to pass ground-breaking Civil Rights legislation in Congress in the 1960s. Baltimore Heritage has spent three years documenting Baltimore’s Civil Rights legacy for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Join the organization’s executive director\, Mr. Johns Hopkins\, to learn more of how Baltimore has shaped the Civil Rights Movement for over 100 years. \n  \nCan’t make this talk?

SUMMARY:Laurel Cemetery Memorial Project Lecture at Israel Baptist Church
DESCRIPTION:We are happy to help the Laurel Cemetery Memorial Task Force spread the news about their upcoming black history lecture. The task force is endeavoring to erect a permanent memorial in recognition of the thousands of African Americans interred at Historic Laurel Cemetery\, to ensure the safety and stability of the site into the foreseeable future\, and to educate the public about the rich history of the cemetery and the lives of those buried there. \nLaurel Cemetery was incorporated in 1852 as Baltimore’s first nondenominational cemetery for African Americans. It quickly became a popular place of burial for people across Black Baltimore’s socioeconomic spectrum\, including 230 Black Civil War veterans\, members of the United States Colored Troops (U.S.C.T.) and notables such as Civil Rights activist Reverend Harvey Johnson. \nIn 1958 and after a series of lawsuits failed to prevail in the courts\, Laurel Cemetery was leveled. Today it is the site of the Belair-Edison Crossing Shopping Center\, and home to several businesses. However\, many current patrons and nearby residents have no knowledge of the site’s former purpose and significance. Join us to learn more about the important history of the site and how we can preserve its memory.

SUMMARY:The Woman's Hour: The Great Fight to Win the Vote with Author Elaine Weiss
DESCRIPTION:Nashville\, August 1920: Thirty-five states have ratified the Nineteenth Amendment\, twelve have rejected or refused to vote\, and one last state is needed. It all comes down to Tennessee\, the moment of truth for the suffragists\, after a seven-decade crusade. Join us as author Elaine Weiss discusses her new book “The Woman’s Hour: The Great Fight to Win the Vote” where she tells the story of activists winning their own freedom in one of the last campaigns forged in the shadow of the Civil War\, and the beginning of the great twentieth-century battles for civil rights.  \nIn her book\, Ms. Weiss describes the opposing forces in the fight for women’s suffrage\, including politicians with careers at stake\, liquor companies\, railroad magnates\, and racists who didn’t want black women voting. Woodrow Wilson\, Warren Harding\, Frederick Douglass\, and Eleanor Roosevelt also play important roles in this story replete with dirty tricks\, betrayals and bribes\, bigotry\, Jack Daniel’s\, and the Bible. \nThis talk is a partnership between Baltimore Heritage and the Garrett-Jacobs Mansion. This program and our speaker series have been funded by Mayor Bernard C. “Jack” Young and the Baltimore Office of Promotion and the Arts.

SUMMARY:Baltimore in the Golden Age of Radio
DESCRIPTION:Note – Change of Date. This talk was originally scheduled for October 13. It will now take place on Sunday\, October 6\, 2019. \n\nFrom Guglielmo Marconi’s experiments in sending audio signals via radio waves in the 1890s to the strains of Rock and Roll coursing through teenage ears in the 1960s\, and everything in between\, Baltimore historian Jack Burkert explores the Golden Age of Radio in the lives of Americans\, with a special focus on Baltimore. In today’s world of internet and visual media\, we forget how radio transformed America with national networks\, new snazzy commercial jingles\, and the story of how one company came to dominate the new radio market only to suddenly exit altogether. Of course\, Mr. Burkert will take a look at Baltimore’s own radio stations\, some of the broadcasts they transmitted\, and a few of the charming personalities involved in the radio business along the way.  \nThis talk is a partnership between Baltimore Heritage and the Garrett-Jacobs Mansion. This program and our speaker series have been funded by Mayor Bernard C. “Jack” Young and the Baltimore Office of Promotion and the Arts. \n*NEW* Come early for an inside look at the historic Garrett-Jacobs Mansion during a rare Sunday afternoon pre-talk tour\, led by one of our docents. The tours start at 1 p.m. Learn more about the Garrett family’s far-reaching influence\, the building’s architecture (designed by two prominent architects\, Stanford White and John Russell Pope)\, and “Baltimore’s Mrs. Astor\,” Mary Frick Garrett Jacobs. Tickets are an additional $10.

SUMMARY:Finding the Love: How to Appreciate Baltimore’s Curious Empty Buildings with Architect and Artist Jerome Gray
DESCRIPTION:From the Modernist Kagro Building at the corner of North and Maryland Avenues to the New Refuge Deliverance Cathedral at St. Paul and Chase Streets that has been covered in scaffolding for over a decade\, Baltimore contains a number of distinct buildings that are highly visible\, curiously vacant\, and all but overlooked in plain sight. Architect and artist Jerome Gray will discuss his research into who built these places\, who occupied them\, who were supposed to be their stewards\, and how these seemingly dull places actually contribute to Baltimore’s built environment.  \nMr. Gray’s discussion will combine his research into the histories of several buildings\, comments on them as an architect and artist\, and a presentation of his own artwork celebrating them as part of Baltimore’s urban fabric. Please join us for the talk at 5:30 and stay for a wine and cheese reception. Both are free!  \nWe are pleased to be sponsoring this event in partnership with the Baltimore Architecture Foundation\, which is handling registration. \nThis talk is part of Free Fall Baltimore which is presented by BGE\, and is a program of the Baltimore Office of Promotion and the Arts\, an independent non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. \nRegister Here!

SUMMARY:Rowhouses Near and Far: Historian Charlie Duff on his New Book “The North Atlantic Cities”
DESCRIPTION:What do Amsterdam\, London\, Dublin\, and Baltimore have in common? They are part of the great family of the world’s rowhouse cities\, of course! Join historian Charlie Duff for an exploration of these and other row house cities and the debut of his newly released book\, The North Atlantic Cities. If you’ve ever wondered why we have so many rowhouses in Baltimore as compared to pretty much nearly everywhere else\, what it means to organize your city around them\, or what led Baltimoreans two hundred years ago to start the ball rolling down this rowhouse path\, this talk is for you. Mr. Duff will have copies of his book to purchase. \nThis talk is a partnership between Baltimore Heritage and the Garrett-Jacobs Mansion. This program and our speaker series have been funded by Mayor Bernard C. “Jack” Young and the Baltimore Office of Promotion and the Arts.
