Courtney Stuart Reports: Former Montpelier Board Chair Recalls Challenges And Successes

Congratulations James French ! 🫡

Hi. For Juneteenth, I’ve been working on a two-parter about figuring out what kind of descendant I want to be. The first episode is about ways in which descendants are honoring their ancestors who were enslaved.

At the 2nd of three of Institute of Politics Policy and History (IPPH) Founding Father's Legacy Series yesterday at Monticello, 'Unpacking The Complex Truth Behind The Legacy.' Sharon Pratt continues her excellent deep dive into history, and Michael Steele connects the dots to modern politics📺IPPH YouTube

'Montpelier will host a two-day event, Celebrating Stories of Freedom. The celebration starts on June 17, and runs from 10am to 4pm at Montpelier, while day two is on June 19 from 11am to 2pm at Church Street Park.'

Congratulations Leontyne!

Great conversation about how the parity experiment at Montpelier is not just about history but points to broader possibilities to create stronger institutions. Look forward to when it is released online.

Looking forward to this amazing conversation with Dr. Kerri Greenidge about the legendary abolitionist Grimke sisters and the forgotten Black members of their family. Tonight at 6:30pm! Join us on Zoom or in person. Register here: eventbrite.com/.../kerri-k-gr…...
