Join us on June 29 from 4:00pm to 6:30pm at the Levi Jordan Plantation for "On the Plantation Porch." Dr. Ronald Goodwin will present his book, Remembering the Days of Sorrow, and join in a discussion about the importance of his research.
In Dr. Goodwin's Remembering the Days of Sorrow, he uses the very important tool of oral narratives from the Texas Slaves' Narratives Project in order to discuss and shine light on slavery from the enslaves people's point of view. This book provides a glimpse into the lives and culture of those formerly enslaved people during a very trying time. This program will facilitate discussion between researchers, educators, and visitors to discuss these important topics within an educational space.
