SUMMARY:Stowe Prize Series: The Phillips Manuscript and "James: A Novel"
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\n77 Forest St\, Hartford | Zoom\n6:00 – 7:30 PM EST\, Presentation and audience Q&A\nRiverbend Bookshop: Get a 10% discount our Stowe Prize books! Mention us at check-out or use STOWEFORCHANGE for online purchases.\nWith gratitude to our funders for their support\n\n\nRegister to Attend in Person\nRegister to Attend Virtually\n\nGodfrey L. Simmons Jr.\, Artistic Director of the HartBeat Ensemble\, will stage a dramatic reading of selections of the Phillips Manuscript. Cat White\, Director of Historic Collections at the Stowe Center\, will introduce the project and provide context for each passage. Dr. Camesha Scruggs\, professor at Central Connecticut State University\, will then facilitate a conversation about the manuscript and our Stowe Prize winning novel\, Percival Everett’s James.  \n \nThe Stowe Prize Series continues with a powerful exploration of history\, storytelling\, and the enduring struggle for freedom. \nThis year\, we bring into conversation two remarkable works: the recently discovered Phillips Manuscript\, which documents the extraordinary life of Dr. William H. Phillips\, and Percival Everett’s award-winning novel James. The Phillips Manuscript will be on display at each gathering. \nBorn enslaved in Virginia in 1841\, Dr. Phillips went on to become a nationally respected minister at Shiloh Baptist Church in Philadelphia. His life touches on pivotal events of 19th-century America and illuminates the resilience\, courage\, and intellect of Black Americans before and after emancipation. His story resonates with the themes of Everett’s James\, which reframes the story of Huck Finn through the eyes of Jim. \nTogether\, these works invite us to reflect on the essential question:What is the role of storytelling and narrative in our understanding of history and our current culture?

SUMMARY:Spirits at Stowe
DESCRIPTION:Spirits at Stowe considers spiritualism as a tool of resistance among radicals and reformers of the 19th century. \nThrough contact with spirits\, radical women claimed authority to speak the unspeakable\, especially the right to full control and autonomy over their own bodies and families. Throughout the tour\, we will delve into the historic\, social\, and political context of the 19th century and explore the role of spiritualism in the lives of reformers\, suffragists\, and Black activists\, including Harriet Jacobs\, Frederick Douglass\, and Harriet Wilson. \nDuring the tour\, the house is “set” to reflect a Spiritualist setting. It takes place later in the evening and is by (electric) candlelight. Participants on the tour will observe and engage with materials and primary sources related to spiritualism\, including a planchette\, spiritualist newspapers\, seance accounts\, and letter excerpts from leading 19th century activists. \nSpirits at Stowe deals with themes such as violence\, sexuality\, and reproductive rights.It is not recommended for children under 13.  \n  \nWhat is spiritualism?  \nBroadly speaking\, spiritualism is the belief that an individual’s awareness persists after death and can be contacted by the living. During Spirits at Stowe\, we discuss the histories of multiple spiritualist traditions in U.S. history\, and how these beliefs helped inspire\, nourish\, and connect politically radical individuals and communities – paying special attention to abolitionism\, women’s rights\, labor rights\, and the intersection among them. \n
