SUMMARY:Forward Together: The Legacy of John Hanson Briscoe
DESCRIPTION:Join us virtually on Wednesday\, April 19th\, for the second of our two connected events featuring two individuals who were transformative in shaping Historic Sotterley\, their communities\, and our State. April was the birth month of Trustee Emeritus John Hanson Briscoe\, former Maryland Circuit Court Judge\, Maryland Speaker of the House\, and staunch advocate for Historic Sotterley. This event will feature a panel to discuss his life\, his work\, and the impact he had on Sotterley and our community. Our panel for the evening will include Jan Briscoe\, Sam Baldwin\, the Honorable James Kenney and Michael Whitson. Senator Ben Cardin has also been invited to join the event to share his remembrances of the man he knew so well. \nJohn Hanson Briscoe was born on April 10\, 1934. In his lifetime as a St. Mary’s County resident\, he served as a Member and Speaker of the House of Delegates and County Administrative Judge\, and served on many County\, State and National commissions and boards for the betterment of our communities and their citizens. He always advocated the need to remember our past with historical preservation\, to protect and conserve our natural resources and environment\, and was instrumental in the passage of state civil rights laws. In his time on the Historic Sotterley Board of Trustees\, he advocated strongly for the preservation of Sotterley so that it could continue to share its history with the world. \nJohn worked closely with Agnes Kane Callum\, who was honored in part one of our series in February\, and their friendship and mutual respect laid the foundation for Historic Sotterley’s Decendants Project today. Together this extraordinary pair created a powerful duo who helped to save Sotterley\, but just as importantly\, worked to ensure that this irreplaceable site tells an inclusive and honest history. \n  \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Whispers from the Water: Ancestral Memories from the Clotilda
DESCRIPTION:On April 29\, 2022\, St. Mary’s College of Maryland and Historic Sotterley are partnering to present a screening of the powerful 2022 Netflix film\, “Descendant\,” to our community. The screening will be followed by a panel that will discuss the film\, how it showcases previously undiscovered historical findings\, as well as the long-lasting negative economic\, environmental and social impacts the slave trade continues to have on Africatown and our nation. \nSet in the small Alabama community of Africatown\, the documentary follows the descendants of the survivors of the Clotilda\, the last known slave ship to transport human beings as cargo from Africa to America. On July 9\, 1860\, more than 100 captive Africans were illicitly brought to the shores of Mobile\, Alabama\, under cover of darkness. The international slave trade had been made illegal in the US in 1808\, but human trafficker Timothy Meaher made a bet that he could get around the law with his ship. After the illegal voyage\, the ship was burned and scuttled in Mobile Cay in an attempt to destroy the evidence. Today\, the residents of Africatown\, just north of Mobile\, count the Clotilda survivors among their ancestors. Uncovering the truth about the Clotilda\, which was a centuries-old open secret\, was pursued by marine archaeologists to confirm the ship’s existence and bring its stories to the surface. \nThe panel will feature Jocelyn Davis\, a direct descendant of Clotilda survivor Charlie Lewis and lifelong resident of Africatown\, as well as Kamau Sadiki who was featured in the documentary for his work as a member of the dive team Divers with a Purpose and who is the President of the National Association of Black Scuba Divers that identified the Clotilda. Joining the panel will be Dr. Susan Langley\, the Maryland State Underwater Archaeologist and Adjunct Professor of Anthropology at St. Mary’s College of Maryland; Dr. Liza Gijanto\, Associate Professor of Anthropology at St. Mary’s College of Maryland; Kelsy Bush\, Historic Sotterley Descendant and Board Member as well as the Community Affairs Liaison of St. Mary’s College of Maryland; and Gwen Bankins\, Historic Sotterley Descendant and Secretary of the Board of Trustees. \nThe event will be held in the St. Mary’s College of Maryland Nancy R. & Norton T. Dodge Performing Arts Center\, 47855 College Dr.\, St. Mary’s City\, MD with doors opening at 1:00 pm. The film begins at 1:30 pm\, followed by an intermission and then the panel discussion approximately at 3:45 p.m. This event is being held free of charge to our community\, though tickets are required. \n  \nRegister Here\n  \nPhoto of Kamau Sadiki courtesy of Wayne Lawrence.
