Interpreting the Civil War: Connecting the Civil War to the American Public
Broken chains and muskets: the very essence of the slaveholder's rebellion. The war was caused by a blind, stalwart defense of slavery. The war hinged upon the future of slavery in America. The war shattered slavery in the United States forever. [excerpt]

Interpreting the Civil War: Connecting the Civil War to the American Public
There's something about touching the actual thing, something about contacting the real that makes a distant world come immediately to life. There's an excitement about that moment when you see and touch something a piece of another world. A Thomas the Tank Engine character reminded me of this fact recently. Watch the young boy's face as he picks Stanley back up in a cornfield after his favorite toy travels to space and back. [excerpt]

Blogging the Library
One project I haven’t blogged too much about yet is the Civil War Sheet Music exhibit for the Main Floor.

I can’t help but wonder what my AP U.S. History teacher, Robert C. Lemire, Jr., would say if he knew I was designing an exhibit on the Election of 1860. I get chills every time I crack open a book from the research stack on my desk; suddenly I can hear his college-style lectures all over again, drilling me about the differences between popular sovereignty and free soil.

We Tell The Story, Buffalo Gay Men's Chorus
We Tell The Story, Buffalo Gay Men's Chorus
Programs
From love and loss, passion and pain, celebration and conflict -- we share one thing. We have a story to tell. Why we tell our story can range from enlightenment to entertainment.
