Opened in 1839, Baltimore’s Green Mount Cemetery is the final resting place of some of Maryland’s most famous, and infamous, figures. For a long time, it was believed only one African American person, Martha Ann Atavis, was buried here. After filming a video on her, Baltimore Heritage board member and volunteer, Lashelle Bynum, vowed to uncover the stories of other African Americans buried here. Since then, Lashelle and Green Mount Cemetery employees have discovered over a dozen Black Baltimoreans who worked as enslaved and/or free servants and were buried in the plots of their enslavers and/or employers. Join Lashelle, and Molly Ricks, Deputy Director of Baltimore Heritage, to learn the names of these individuals—Patience Marsh, Isaac Beale, and Hester Turner, to name a few—and how they persevered. 

System Source's computer museum displays technology from the inception of computing! From the ancient Antikythera Mechanism dating to the first century BC to the Altair 8800, the early personal computer that Paul Allen and Bill Gates (then a student at Harvard) wrote code for in the mid 1970s, the Computer Museum at the IT firm System Source is a marvelous chronicle of the evolution of the computer. Please join us as we explore computers of all shapes and sizes through the ages. Who knows, maybe the museum’s Millionaire Calculating Machine from 1909 will again work its magic on our tour.
