Lest It Never Be Told: A Conversation about Durham Histories — November 3rd, 12 noon
What are the stories we know about Durham? What about stories we haven’t heard so often? How do some stories become well known while others fade from public view? How do histories shape the way we think about our hometown?
What would it mean to bring some of the lesser-known stories to light? In the spirit of Pauli Murray, this panel discussion explores Durham stories along this continuum and offers insights into the ways that history shapes our contemporary views.
November 3rd at 12 pm at the John Hope Franklin Center, Room 240

of them being recorded and available to non-attendees (for a fee))?
