Lunchtime Time Machine: How did slaves survive the Civil War?

101 LeConte

This installment of the Department of History’s undergraduate lecture series features Dr. Scott Nesbit. Professor Nesbit uses digital tools to tackle questions about the history and spaces of the American South. He has led digital history projects such as Visualizing Emancipation, which used a wide array of textual sources — ranging from military correspondence to runaway slave advertisements found in southern newspapers — to map out where and when slavery fell apart during the American Civil War. 

Free admission, free pizza.
