Good coverage of SPX and BCC from TCJ
Crabcakes and comics: Celebrating the milestone years of SPX and Baltimore Comic-Con
Oct 21: MAGA, Memes and Momala political cartoon event
Cartoonists have long lived on the front lines in the fight for freedom of speech. The US Supreme Court used cartoons to codify our right to lampoon our political leaders in the seminal case, Hustler Magazine v. Falwell. Decline of local newspapers, explosion of social media, political polarization and global trends toward populism, nationalism and authoritarianism shape today's challenges.
DATE: Monday, Oct. 21, 2024
Program begins at 6:30pm
Dress: Business casual
Panelists:
Matt Wuerker, editorial cartoonist and illustrator, POLITICO
Ann Telnaes, editorial cartoonist, The Washington Post
Michael Ramirez, editorial cartoonist, Las Vegas Review- Journal
Pedro X. Molina, Counterpoint Media and Confidencial, Nicaragua
Award-winning cartoonists
Vladimir Kazanevsky (Ukraine) and Rachita Taneja (India) also will discuss their work and persistent threats to cartoonists around the world.
Where:
Syracuse University DC Campus

Oct 9: Revisiting Reconstruction in DC: Freedom Was in Sight! Historian Kate Masur Discusses her New Book
Revisiting Reconstruction in DC: Freedom Was in Sight! Historian Kate Masur Discusses her New Book in Conversation with Maya Davis
Wednesday, October 9 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
$10.00
"Freedom Was in Sight is a revelation. Kate Masur's exceptional scholarship combined with Liz Clarke's virtuosic illustrations bring the history of Reconstruction to life with color, texture, and humanity. Never has Reconstruction been rendered in such a dynamic way. No longer is the history an abstraction. Here it leaps from the page. It breathes. It speaks. It haunts. It quakes. I can't stop thinking about this book."
—Clint Smith, author of How the Word Is Passed
This event is part of Hill Center's annual Benjamin Drummond series
Freedom Was in Sight! A Graphic History of Reconstruction in the Washington, D.C., Region was commissioned through a partnership with the National Park Service and the Organization of American Historians, the leading professional organization for U.S. history.
Over the course of nearly two hundred pages of full-color, original illustrations, historian Kate Masur and illustrator Liz Clarke draw on the words and experiences of people who lived during Reconstruction to powerfully show how the Civil War and emancipation transformed the United States, with impacts rippling outward for decades.
Narrated by Emma V. Brown, the first African American teacher in Washington's public schools, the book places Black Americans at the center of this history. Famous individuals such as Frederick Douglass and Ida B. Wells appear in the book, as do lesser-known figures like Helen Appo Cook, a leading organizer of women who spoke out against the racism of the white-led women's suffrage movement, and lawyer-journalist William Calvin Chase, longtime editor of the Washington Bee.
Freedom Was in Sight! reveals the hopes and betrayals of a critical period in American history, and corrects misconceptions about the Reconstruction era and highlights the often-overlooked experiences of Black Americans who mobilized for freedom and equality and sounded the alarm as agents of white supremacy consolidated power. Amid the intense national debate about how to teach the history of enslavement and race in the US, Masur offers a compelling, masterful account of the period, explicitly addressing racial violence while also foregrounding stories of Black Americans who met the moment with humanity and cultivated hope for the future.
"Here in vivid visuals, a tight narrative, and rich context, Masur and Clarke give readers an experience they will not forget…I can only wish I'd had this kind of powerful history of Reconstruction in my youth. This tale of America's second founding in the capital city as thousands of freedmen found new homes and lives is withering, visually stunning, and good history all at once." —David W. Blight, author of Pulitzer Prize–winning Frederick Douglass: Prophet of Freedom.
Kate Masur is a professor at Northwestern University who specializes in the history of race, politics, and law in the United States. She's the author of Until Justice Be Done: America's First Civil Rights Movement, from the Revolution to Reconstruction, a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in History and a New York Times "critics' pick" for 2021. Kate led a team of students and staff at Northwestern in the creation of Black Organizing in Pre-Civil War Illinois: Creating Community, Demanding Justice, a web exhibit associated with the Colored Conventions Project.
She regularly collaborates with museums and other nonprofits, including the National Park Service, the National Constitution Center, the Newberry Library, and the Smithsonian Museum of African American History and Culture. She was a key consultant for the 2019 documentary, Reconstruction: America after the Civil War and appeared in the 2021 CNN film, Lincoln: Divided We Stand.
Maya Davis is the Director of the Riversdale House Museum, the former 19th Century Plantation home in Prince George's County. Prior to her arrival she was the Research Archivist and Legislative Liaison at the Maryland State Archives where she consulted on statewide projects related to the African American experience and facilitated discussions on state legislation and contemplated legislation. Some of her recent projects include the Adam Francis Plummer Portrait Commission, Installation of the Frederick Douglass and Harriet Tubman Statue at the Maryland State House, Annapolis Port Marker project, and the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad National Park and Visitor Center. Maya currently serves as a Commissioner on the Maryland Lynching Truth and Reconciliation Commission and Maryland Commission on African American History and Culture, and board member at the Maryland Center for History and Culture and Prince George's County Historical Society. Previously she served as the Interim Director of the Banneker-Douglass Museum, staff at the City Museum of Washington, DC, and Vice Chair of the Annapolis 1864 Commission to Commemorate Maryland Emancipation Day. A native Washingtonian, Maya is a graduate of Howard and George Washington Universities where she obtained degrees in History and Museum Studies.
Books will be available for sale, and a book signing will follow the conversation.
Randy Belice for Northwestern University Tonight: Freedom Was in Sight: A Graphic History of Reconstruction in the Washington, D.C., Region at Politics and Prose in Union Market
[note the artist will not be there]
Kate Masur — Freedom Was in Sight: A Graphic History of Reconstruction in the Washington, D.C., Region - with Robert Samuels — at Union Market
The Reconstruction era was born from the tumult and violence of the Civil War and delivered the most powerful changes the United States had seen since its founding. Black Americans in Washington, D.C., and its surrounding region were at the heart of these transformations, bravely working to reunite their families, build their communities, and claim rights long denied them. Meanwhile, in the capital, government leaders struggled to reunite and remake the nation. Famous individuals such as Frederick Douglass and Ida B. Wells played central roles, as did lesser-known figures like Emma Brown, the first African American teacher in Washington's public schools, and lawyer-journalist William Calvin Chase, longtime editor of the Washington Bee.
Freedom Was in Sight! draws on the words and experiences of people who lived during Reconstruction, powerfully narrating how the impacts of emancipation and civil war rippled outward for decades. Vividly drawn by award-winning graphic artist Liz Clarke and written by Pulitzer Prize-finalist Kate Masur, a leading historian of Reconstruction, this rich graphic history reveals the hopes and betrayals of a critical period in American history.
Kate Masur is Board of Visitors Professor of History at Northwestern University and author, most recently, of Until Justice Be Done: America's First Civil Rights Movement, from the Revolution to Reconstruction.
Masur will be in conversation with Robert Samuels. Samuels a Pulitzer Prize-winning author and national enterprise reporter at The Washington Post. For close to a decade, Robert has traveled across the country to chronicle politics, policy and the changing American identity. He is the co-author of His Name is George Floyd: One Man's Life and the Struggle for Racial Justice, which won the 2023 Pulitzer Prize for Nonfiction, the Dayton Literary Peace Prize and was a finalist for the National Book Award. Robert has also worked as a staff writer at The Miami Herald and the New Yorker. He grew up in The Bronx and resides in Washington, DC.
This event is free with first come, first serve seating.
