SUMMARY:Stowe Prize Series: The Phillips Manuscript and "James: A Novel"
DESCRIPTION:Register to Attend in Person\nRegister to Attend Virtually\n \nThe Stowe Prize Series is a public program series that extends the values of the Stowe Prize for Literary Activism—engaging bold writing\, urgent social questions\, and the ongoing work of literary activism—through conversation and community dialogue. \nThis year\, we’re placing two powerful works in conversation: the recently discovered Phillips Manuscript\, which traces the life of William H. Phillips\, and Percival Everett’s award-winning novel James. The manuscript—on view at each gathering—follows Phillips from his birth into slavery in Virginia in 1841 to his leadership at Shiloh Baptist Church\, illuminating the resilience\, intellect\, and faith that shaped Black life before and after emancipation. In conversation with James\, which reimagines Huck Finn through Jim’s perspective\, these works invite us to consider a central question: what role does storytelling play in shaping how we understand history—and our present moment? \nAbout the Speakers\nLincoln Hirn is a Ph.D. candidate in the History Department at University of Connecticut\, where he studies the literary memory of slavery\, the Civil War\, and Reconstruction. He is currently conducting a survey of the Stowe Center’s archival holdings\, examining the trans-metropolitan activist networks that connected the Hookers to the Phillips family and to broader movements for reform\, philanthropy\, and literary patronage. His doctoral dissertation charts the evolution of the slave narrative as a literary form across the postbellum period. His nonfiction writing has appeared in Nineteenth Century Studies Journal\, while his fiction has appeared in Across the Margin\, Review Americana\, and L’Esprit Literary Review. \n  \n\nCamesha Scruggs\, professor at Central Connecticut State University\, will facilitate a conversation about the manuscript and our Stowe Prize–winning novel\, James\, guiding us in reflecting together on the themes and questions these works raise.

SUMMARY:Salons at Stowe: How can we see others as human?
DESCRIPTION:Salons at Stowe is a monthly community conversation series that invites participants to engage in open\, facilitated dialogue on today’s most pressing social questions. \n\nThe opening installment of Salons at Stowe is inspired by the themes of Amanda Mendoza’s exhibition\, What Does It Mean to Be Human\, currently on view at the Stowe Visitor Center. For our second gathering\, we turn to two foundational topics: \n“How can we see others as human?”“And building empathy for who we don’t understand” \nTogether\, these questions invite participants to explore belonging\, dignity\, and the deep impact of who is—and is not—recognized fully within our communities and systems. This conversation invites curiosity\, vulnerability\, and shared reflection as we consider how humanity is affirmed\, diminished\, and reclaimed. \n\nAbout the Facilitators\n\n\nGamze Ozker\, Researcher \n\n\nDerek Hall\, Facilitator \n\n\nAmanda Mendoza\, Artist \n\n\nGamze Ozker\nGamze Ozker holds an M.A. in Human Rights from the University of Connecticut. Guided by a commitment to honoring human dignity and fostering dialogue across differences\, she brings a human rights lens to the exhibition’s exploration of belonging and solidarity. \nAmanda Mendoza\nArtist\, muralist\, and curator Amanda Mendoza is dedicated to creating work that fosters advocacy\, resilience\, and community healing. Her artistic philosophy centers on the power of art not merely to decorate\, but to transform—to help communities see themselves\, connect across difference\, and imagine new possibilities. As the Stowe Center for Literary Activism’s Artist of Color Accelerate\, Mendoza brings both artistic insight and lived experience to the conversation her exhibition inspires. \nDerek Hall\nDerek Hall (he/him/his) is an anti-racist intergroup dialogue facilitator\, public speaker\, and activist committed to challenging systemic racism and reshaping the cultures that sustain it. With over a decade of experience partnering with schools\, nonprofits\, and national organizations\, Hall is known for his dynamic approach to dialogue\, blending storytelling\, accountability\, and community-building. As a Racial Equity Consultant & Coach\, he believes that “changed people\, change systems\,” guiding participants toward deeper understanding and more just ways of being together. \nEXHIBITION OVERVIEW PAGE
