SUMMARY:Conversations at Noon on the Connecticut Freedom Trail - Enslaved for Life: Reexamining Connecticut's Prince Mortimer
DESCRIPTION:On this month’s Conversations at Noon on the Connecticut Freedom Trail we are joined by John Mills\, a software designer who has done extensive research into the fascinating life of Connecticut’s Prince Mortimer and his 11 decades of enslavement. \nBorn in Guinea in the early 1700s\, Prince Mortimer was captured and brought to Connecticut to be sold into slavery. He spent the rest of his very long life in bondage\, dying at over 100 years of age. In his lecture\, John Mills traces his path in discovering his own ties to slavery\, what it taught him about himself and the challenges he faced while searching for his ancestors’ burial sites. He marries his experiences and revelations to the story of Connecticut’s Prince Mortimer. \nJohn Mills’ intent is to bring light to the largely untold story of Prince\, while at the same time evaluating the ripple effects of a past time. This event is FREE and open to the general public.

SUMMARY:Running for Office: Candidates\, Campaigns\, and the Cartoons of Clifford Berryman Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Connecticut’s Old State House will host “Running for Office: Candidates\, Campaigns\, and Cartoons of Clifford Berryman.” Election season in the modern era elicits a barrage of amusing and pointed memes – but historically\, editorial cartoons have swayed opinions and helped shape elections for generations! Clifford Berryman\, a Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist with The Washington Star and The Washington Post\, produced almost daily cartoons for over 50 years – from 1896 to 1949.  \nUnlike any other form of political commentary\, cartoons show altered physical traits and highlight minute details to make a specific point. With simple pen strokes\, they foreshadow the future\, poke fun at the past\, and imply hidden motives in ways that elude written or spoken reporting. This unique exhibit features a series of pen & ink drawings to highlight the timeless aspects of US campaigns and election processes. Running for Office was created by the National Archives with the support of the Foundation for the National Archives and organized for travel by Humanities Texas\, a state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities. \nThis exhibit is part of Connecticut’s Old State House “Go Big. Vote Local.” Series. For information about other upcoming programs in the series\, return to our events calendar. \nExtended hours until 8:00 pm on select Thursdays. On street parking is free on weekends. Garage parking is available at State House Square Garage\, 55 Market Street\, for $5 with validation.

SUMMARY:Running for Office: Candidates\, Campaigns\, and the Cartoons of Clifford Berryman Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Connecticut’s Old State House will host “Running for Office: Candidates\, Campaigns\, and Cartoons of Clifford Berryman.” Election season in the modern era elicits a barrage of amusing and pointed memes – but historically\, editorial cartoons have swayed opinions and helped shape elections for generations! Clifford Berryman\, a Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist with The Washington Star and The Washington Post\, produced almost daily cartoons for over 50 years – from 1896 to 1949.  \nUnlike any other form of political commentary\, cartoons show altered physical traits and highlight minute details to make a specific point. With simple pen strokes\, they foreshadow the future\, poke fun at the past\, and imply hidden motives in ways that elude written or spoken reporting. This unique exhibit features a series of pen & ink drawings to highlight the timeless aspects of US campaigns and election processes. Running for Office was created by the National Archives with the support of the Foundation for the National Archives and organized for travel by Humanities Texas\, a state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities. \nThis exhibit is part of Connecticut’s Old State House “Go Big. Vote Local.” Series. For information about other upcoming programs in the series\, return to our events calendar. \nExtended hours until 8:00 pm on select Thursdays. On street parking is free on weekends. Garage parking is available at State House Square Garage\, 55 Market Street\, for $5 with validation.
