Commemorating the Black Patriots of the Battle of Guilford Courthouse

Ishmael Titus was one of the Black Patriots who took part in the Battle of Guilford Courthouse in 1781 with honor and sacrifice. Centuries later, his descendants have researched and worked to uncover his story. Join us for this free program to learn more about the experiences of enslaved and free people of color at Guilford Courthouse, and about the sources family and professional historians are drawing on to bring those stories to light. The program has been developed as a collaboration between Guilford Courthouse National Military Park, Greensboro Public Library, and the Greensboro History Museum. We are celebrating #NationalLibraryWeek and #NationalParkWeek.

This program will also stream on the Greensboro Public Library’s Facebook page
It is free, but registration is suggested. To register, email Beth Sheffield.
