Classes
Please share these flyers with anyone in the DMV you think would be interested in taking my courses in African History, African American History (I&II), and/or Women's Studies.
I teach at Montgomery College in Maryland. If you see "RV" on a flyer, that means the course is in-person and at our Rockville campus. All others are virtual courses.
Here's a registration info link.
Teaching Fellowship
In the Spring semester I'll co-facilitate the Quantitative Reasoning in the Disciplines Teaching Fellowship. It's a great way to learn quantitative reasoning skills and meet with other MC faculty on-campus. I blogged about my experiences in the program last year. The application cycle is open until November 15th, 2024. See more information about that program below.
Princeton University Presentation postponed until Spring 25
Archiving Black Entrepreneurship: Lessons in Provenance, Nomenclature, and Care
This presentation explores the work of preserving Black entrepreneurial histories by revisiting a volunteer archive project.
While working on her dissertation, Sylvea Hollis processed the papers of the Colored Knights of Pythias (CKOP) and the Court of Calanthe (COC) at the Birmingham Public Library. The CKOP and COC ran fraternal insurance programs, created private child-saving institutions, and founded venues for Black entertainment.
The presentation considers the granular process of researching and preserving records. It foregrounds lessons learned and considers the future landscapes of Black entrepreneurial histories.
