SUMMARY:Deeper into Democracy: Voting & Elections in NC Today
DESCRIPTION:What’s on voters’ minds this fall ahead of midterm elections? How are court decisions shaping the state’s political landscape? How are the latest electoral maps influencing contests? Political scientist Christopher A. Cooper will be talking with veteran political reporter Lynn Bonner about what may be shaping North Carolinian’s choices this November in a free public program. \nChristopher A. Cooper is Robert Lee Madison Distinguished Professor and Director of the Public policy Institute at Western Carolina University. In 2013 he was named North Carolina Professor of the Year by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching. He is a regular contributor to the Old North State Politics blog\, co-author of The Resilience of Southern Identity: Why the South Still Matters in the Minds of Its People and co-editor of The New Politics of North Carolina\, both published by UNC Press. \nLynn Bonner has worked as an Investigative Reporter at NC Policy Watch since October 2020. Prior to that\, she worked for 26 years as a reporter at The News & Observer\, where she covered the state legislature and politics\, and wrote extensively about mental health\, state Medicaid policies and spending\, and public education. \nThe Deeper into Democracy series supports NC Democracy: Eleven Elections. This exhibition explores choices and change across 11 state elections between 1776 and 2010\, illustrating the twists and turns of who could participate\, how voters cast their ballots\, and what influenced decisions that continue to shape what democracy means today.

SUMMARY:Event Postponed! By the Book: Glenda Elizabeth Gilmore on artist Romare Bearden
DESCRIPTION:Due to unforeseen circumstances\, this event is postponed. Hopefully\, we will have a reschedule date to share soon. In the meantime\, check out our other upcoming events at https://greensborohistory.org/events.\nJoin us for a conversation between author Glenda Elizabeth Gilmore\, Professor of History Emerita at Yale University\, and Maya Brooks\, Assistant Curator of Contemporary Art at the NC Museum of Art\, about Gilmore’s new book\, Romare Bearden in the Homeland of His Imagination: An Artist’s Reckoning with the South. Books will be available for purchase. \nRomare Bearden (1911–1988)\, one of the most prolific\, original\, and acclaimed American artists of the twentieth century\, richly depicted scenes and figures rooted in the American South and the Black experience. Bearden hailed from North Carolina but was forced to relocate to the North when a white mob harassed his family in the 1910s. His family story is a compelling\, complicated saga of Black middle-class achievement in the face of relentless waves of white supremacy. It is also a narrative of the generational trauma that slavery and racism inflicted over decades. But as Glenda Gilmore shows in this trenchant reappraisal of Bearden’s life and art\, his work reveals deep imagination\, extensive training\, and a rich knowledge of art history.

SUMMARY:Museum Guild Meeting: Sum of Trifles Author Julia Ridley Smith
DESCRIPTION:Join the Museum Guild for a talk about the objects we inherit and their meaning in our lives with Julia Ridley Smith. \nWhen Julia Ridley Smith’s parents died\, they left behind a virtual museum of furniture\, books\, art\, and artifacts. Between the contents of their home\, the stock from their Greensboro antiques shop\, and the ephemera of two lives lived\, Smith faced a monumental task. What would she do with her parents’ possessions? Smith’s wise and moving memoir in essays\, The Sum of Trifles\, peels back the layers of meaning surrounding specific objects her parents owned\, from an eighteenth-century miniature to her father’s prosthetics. \nSocial time begins at 10\, followed by the program at 10:30. Members of the Guild\, the Museum and the public are invited to attend. If you have questions\, please call Gayle Fripp at 336-601-6191.
