SUMMARY:Slavery on the Eastern Shore of Maryland:  The Legacies of Frederick Douglass\, Harriet Tubman\, Richard S. Potter\, and Moses Viney
DESCRIPTION:From newspaper accounts to personal narratives to essays\, we’ll analyze the everyday lives of slaves on the Eastern Shore of Maryland in the 19th century.  We’ll retrace the journey of slaves such as Frederick Douglass\, whose life began on the Wye Plantation of Talbot County\, and ended on his own estate of Cedar Hill in Washington\, D.C.  To imagine what life would have been like for him\, we’ll take a virtual tour of both estates.  We’ll also discuss lesser known slaves of Caroline and Talbot Counties\, such as Richard S. Potter and Moses Viney.  Please join us for what promises to be a memorable discussion! \nThis event will be held August 4th at 1:00 PM with guest speaker Linda F. Earls\, Associate Professor of English\, Chesapeake College. It will be in the Extended Museum Gallery in the front of the Hill Research Center. Tickets are free for members and $5 for non-members. This event is by reservation only\, and will be limited to 40 seats\, so please email erinp@talbothistory.org or call 410-822-0773 to reserve your seat. \n  \nAbout the speaker\nLinda Earls began teaching at Chesapeake College in 1995 as an adjunct faculty instructor to the English department\, but was hired as a full-time professor in 1997 (teaching reading\, composition and literature courses\, particularly American and African American literature). \nShe frequently co-teaches American literature with American history professors\, as she believes the two courses go “hand in glove.” A lover of history\, she has an extensive collection of Civil War letters\, and since childhood has been fascinated visiting and reading anything pertaining to the war. \nA native of the Eastern Shore\, Earls shares her passion for making history “come alive” with her students by traveling with them to locations such as Cedar Hill in Washington\, D.C. (former home of Frederick Douglass); the Wye House & Plantation (where Douglass was kept as a slave); the Edgar Allan Poe House in Baltimore; and many other local sites. \nShe received her BA in English and her MA in Literature from Salisbury University\, and worked on her PhD in American Literature at the George Washington University in Washington\, D.C. \nEarls volunteers for the Talbot Historical Society and the Talbot Humane Society. She lives in Easton with her husband\, Chris; her son\, Ryan\, her daughter\, Morgan; and her furry family of cats and dogs.
