Live #Webinar Lecture: #RevolutionaryDreams: A #BlackPower #Bicentennial

Thursday, February 12, 2026, 6pm-7:30pm

"Lecture Description:
In this live virtual talk (via Zoom webinar), Dr. Amber N. Wiley discusses both her scholarly and pedagogical approaches to analyzing American history through the lens of the #AfroAmerican Bicentennial Corporation (ABC). Inspired by the ABC’s work to identify and protect cultural landscapes related to #BlackAmerican achievements ahead of the 1976 commemoration of the #AmericanRevolution, Wiley has taken up their charge to 'continue the revolution' through the 'process of #decolonization, a movement toward self-realization and self-government by people determined not to be kept in a subject status.' The lecture will highlight Wiley’s public history, preservation, and teaching work in New Jersey, Philadelphia, and Washington, DC related to revolutionary histories in each locale.

Author Bio:
