Washington Street (at the corner of Church Street). Join Historic Alexand ria in honoring Contrabands and Freedmen Cemetery Memorial's inclusion in the African American Civil Rights Network (AACRN). The free dedication wil l include a wreath laying by the 31st Masonic District\, a reading by repr esentatives of the United States Colored Troops (USCT)\, and remarks by Re verend Taft Quincey Heatley. The ceremony will take place rain or shine. \ n \nThe AACRN's collection of 57 powerful historic resources commemorate\, honor\, and interpret the nation's Civil Rights Movement and the continui ng struggle for racial equality. Contrabands and Freedmen Cemetery is the oldest and first site in Virginia to be added to the network. In 1864\, th e U.S. Army established the burial ground for contrabands and freedmen\, m aking it one of the few final resting places of its kind in the country. S hortly after\, the cemetery became the site of Alexandria's first known Ci vil Rights expression. Following the burial of 118 United States Colored T roops (USCT) in Contrabands and Freedmen Cemetery\, outraged USCT proteste d and petitioned for their fellow soldiers' right to be buried at what is today Alexandria National Cemetery. As a result of their action\, the sold iers were reburied in Alexandria National Cemetery.\n\n\nLocation: See Det ails\nAudience: Anyone may attend\nTags: Archaeology Museum\, Black Histor y Museum\, Equity\, Museums\n\nImport this event into your calendar: http: //apps.alexandriava.gov/CalendarTest/iCal.aspx?id=1&si=36552 DTEND:20210724T130000Z DTSTAMP:20210707T203246Z DTSTART:20210724T120000Z LOCATION:See Details SEQUENCE:6 STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:Contrabands and Freedmen Cemetery Dedication TRANSP:TRANSPARENT UID:c2d69361-9eaf-4d9b-b59d-c30aa4569d0e X-COA-DTSTAMP:20210707T203246Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CATEGORIES:Black History Museum,Museums DESCRIPTION:To make sure the time\, location\, and other aspects have not c hanged\, or to share this event with your friends\, please see https://app s.alexandriava.gov/CalendarTest/Detail.aspx?si=35169\n\nVirtual Meeting\n\ nLocation: Virtual Only\nAudience: Anyone may attend\nTags: Black History Museum\, Museums\n\nImport this event into your calendar: http://apps.ale xandriava.gov/CalendarTest/iCal.aspx?id=1&si=35169\n\nWeb resources:\n\nRe gistration Link\nhttps://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_NYf-HLDtQxSk4CTqx1ySw Q\n DTEND:20210728T000001Z DTSTAMP:20210719T215812Z DTSTART:20210727T230000Z LOCATION: Virtual Only SEQUENCE:6 STATUS:CANCELLED SUMMARY:CANCELLED: ACRP Marketing Committee Meeting TRANSP:TRANSPARENT UID:a85ce5ea-203e-4796-ae9c-02e33132eefc URL:https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_NYf-HLDtQxSk4CTqx1ySwQ X-COA-DTSTAMP:20210719T215812Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CATEGORIES:ALL Alexandria,Black History Museum,Equity,Lyceum,Museums DESCRIPTION:To make sure the time\, location\, and other aspects have not c hanged\, or to share this event with your friends\, please see https://app s.alexandriava.gov/CalendarTest/Detail.aspx?si=37610\n\nLynching was an im portant method of enforcing white supremacy in America for more than a cen tury. Through the constant threat of extreme racial violence\, lynching se rved to control Black communities politically\, socially\, and culturally. This lecture will discuss how lynching photography and representations of lynching in American art provide historical information and context for r acial violence in the United States. We will also discuss how lynching pho tography has shaped our understanding of depictions of racial violence in contemporary society.\n\nLaNitra M.

Blackmon\nThis Pulitzer prize winning hist ory details how not long after the liberation of African Americans from bo ndage at the end of the Civil War\, the new citizens were forced back into involuntary servitude. Journalist and University of Virginia Miller Cente r Forum Chair Blackmon reveals the stories of those who fought against the use of selective enforcement of laws and discriminatory sentencing to ree nslave Black people during an "Age of Neoslavery'' brought about by the So uth's exploitation of a clause in the 13th Amendment. He describes the way companies and governments profited by "leasing" the labor of those they a ccused and convicted of petty crimes. Alexandria used such labor to repair and build streets\, alleys and sewers soon after the conservative democra ts regained control of the local government in 1873. \n\n\nLocation: See D etails\nFees: $125\, The book is not included in the ticket price and shou ld be purchased separate from a local bookstore.\nAudience: Anyone may att end\nTags: Black History\, Black History Museum\, Equity\, Museums\n\nImpo rt this event into your calendar: http://apps.alexandriava.gov/CalendarTes t/iCal.aspx?id=1&si=56873\n\nWeb resources:\n\nBuy Tickets Here\nhttps://s hop.alexandriava.gov/Events.aspx\n DTEND:20240114T020000Z DTSTAMP:20231211T173000Z DTSTART:20240113T230000Z LOCATION:See Details SEQUENCE:4 STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:Tables of Conscience-Slavery By Another Name TRANSP:TRANSPARENT UID:6b8276ea-a0e5-47f3-ba5e-5860a7efa02a URL:https://shop.alexandriava.gov/Events.aspx X-COA-DTSTAMP:20231211T173000Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CATEGORIES:Black History,Black History Museum,Equity,Museums DESCRIPTION:To make sure the time\, location\, and other aspects have not c hanged\, or to share this event with your friends\, please see https://app s.alexandriava.gov/CalendarTest/Detail.aspx?si=56859\n\nAuthor and Univers ity of Virginia Professor of American Studies and History Grace Elizabeth Hale will speak to members of the Alexandria Community Remembrance Project about her latest book\, Into the Pines: A Lynching\, A Lie\, A Reckoning on Saturday\, Jan. 27\, 2024 at 1 p.m. at the Lloyd House.

It is tr ue we no longer live with legal segregation\, but a divide between Black a nd white people still exists\, even in Alexandria. We live near each other \, but we generally do not have close relationships that cross the "color line" and even when we do\, the dominant white culture can cause miscommun ication that can generate anger. This frank\, funny book helps us understa nd\, and eliminate alarmingly common interactions that cause friction for both Black and white people.\n\n\n\nLocation: See Details\nFees: $125\, Th e book is not included in the ticket price and should be purchased separat e from a local bookstore.\nAudience: Anyone may attend\nTags: Black Histor y\, Black History Museum\, Equity\, Museums\n\nImport this event into your calendar: http://apps.alexandriava.gov/CalendarTest/iCal.aspx?id=1&si=568 74\n\nWeb resources:\n\nBuy Tickets Here\nhttps://shop.alexandriava.gov/Ev ents.aspx\n DTEND:20240204T010000Z DTSTAMP:20231211T173111Z DTSTART:20240203T230000Z LOCATION:See Details SEQUENCE:4 STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:Tables of Conscience-Slavery By Another Name TRANSP:TRANSPARENT UID:2874869f-f4e3-44d3-a313-4bbefb5177d6 URL:https://shop.alexandriava.gov/Events.aspx X-COA-DTSTAMP:20231211T173111Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CATEGORIES:Black History,Black History Museum,Equity,Family,Museums DESCRIPTION:To make sure the time\, location\, and other aspects have not c hanged\, or to share this event with your friends\, please see https://app s.alexandriava.gov/CalendarTest/Detail.aspx?si=57151\n\nJoin Oumie for an Afro-centric story time at the Alexandria Black History Museum on the seco nd Saturday of each month.
