Bynum\, Ph.D. Dr. Bynum\, who received her Ph.D. from JHU in 2008\, will discuss her recent publication Reading Pleasures: Everyday Black Living in Early America (2023\, University of Illinois Press + New Black Studies Series). Presentation followed by light hors d’oeuvres with the author. \n\nABOUT THE SPEAKER\nTara A. Bynum\, Ph.D.\, is an Assistant Professor of English & African American Studies and a scholar of early African American literary histories before 1800. She received her Ph.D. in English from the Johns Hopkins University and a BA in Political Science from Barnard College. \n\nHer current monograph\, Reading Pleasures (University of Illinois Press’ New Black Studies\, fall 2022)\, examines the ways in which eighteenth-century enslaved and/or free men and women feel good or experience pleasure in spite of the privations of slavery\, “unfreedom\,” or white supremacy. It is a pleasure that isn’t beholden to social expectations or systemic oppression\, but instead is experienced because of an individual’s commitment to religious faith\, friendship\, or community building. This work is part of a larger\, ongoing project that thinks more deeply about how black communities in the early republic made and shaped the very meaning of nation-building in the greater New England area and beyond. Related essays have appeared or are forthcoming in: Early American Literature\, Common-Place\, Legacy\, J19\, Criticism\, American Periodicals\, and African American Literature in Transition\, Vol. 1\, 1750-1800. \n  \n\nABOUT THE JHU MUSEUMS’ DIRECTOR’S CIRCLE\nBecoming a member of the Johns Hopkins University Museums is a great way to ensure you don’t miss out on all the fascinating history and exciting activities at Homewood and Evergreen.

The talk will be followed by a reception with the speaker.   \n  \nABOUT THE SPEAKER\nMichael Olmert has been teaching Shakespeare and drama at the University of Maryland English Department for 37 years. He’s spoken frequently on the “The Invention of Colonial Williamsburg.” He’s written The Official Guide to Colonial Williamsburg (CWF\, 1986-2016)\, The Smithsonian Book of Books (Smithsonian Institution\, 1992)\, Milton’s Teeth & Ovid’s Umbrella (Simon & Schuster\, 1996).

Harper (born September 24\, 1825). These two women born into working-class families lived separate realities in 1820s Baltimore. Yet\, their worlds were profoundly shaped by gender norms that conscripted their worlds\, choices\, and trajectories. Looking at their lives contributes to the subfield of girlhood studies. \nABOUT THE SPEAKER\nIda Jones serves as the Associate Director of Special Collections and University Archivist at Morgan State University. A noted professional archivist and historian\, award-winning author\, educator\, and recognized leader in the field of African American women’s history. She is a member of the Baltimore City Historical Society and the Maryland Women’s Heritage Center. Her interest in Baltimore history is a growing interest since recently moving to the city. \n  \nREGISTRATION\n\n\n\nSuggested Donation\n$5.00\n\n\n\nFriends of JHU Museums & JHU Students\nFREE\n\n\n\n\nPlease register HERE \n  \n  URL:https://museums.jhu.edu/event/girlhood-in-1820s-baltimore/ LOCATION:Homewood Museum\, 3400 N.
