SUMMARY:Virtual Talk: "The African Americans’ Revolution"
DESCRIPTION:Professor LaGarrett J. King will discuss his recent article “The African Americans’ Revolution: Black Patriots\, Black Founders\, and the Concept of Interest Convergence.” Black Founders were men and women of African ancestry who lived during colonial times. Their ideas and actions helped form economic systems\, win freedom from the British\, establish social institutions\, and fight racial prejudice in the emerging United States. Black Founders did not necessarily hold the same philosophical principles as their white counterparts\, and in many cases their ideas and practices contradicted white Founders’ beliefs about race and democracy. Given their racist exclusion from the larger American society\, Black Founders were more concerned about building a country within a country—one for Black people. \nLaGarrett J. King is an Associate Professor of Social Studies Education in the Graduate School of Education at the University at Buffalo. A former teacher in Texas and Georgia\, his research broadly examines how Black history and race is taught and learned in schools and society. \nThis is a virtual talk which will be held on Zoom. SCHS Members will be emailed a link the day of the program. \nWinter Speaker Series: \n07 JAN Marie Danielle Annette Williams “Loyalists in the Adirondacks”\n14 JAN Laurie Lawlor “Many Voices: Erie\, the Canal that Changed America”\n21 JAN Chuck Henry “First Draft of History: NY State Historic Newspapers”\n28 JAN Ellen Ledoux “Laboring Mothers: Reproducing Women and Work in the 18th Century” \n04 FEB Sarah Wassberg Johnson “Apples in America: A History”\n06 FEB James Taub\, Associate Curator\, Museum of the American Revolution “Threads of Liberty”\n11 FEB Mary Liz Stewart “Underground Railroad”\n21 FEB Chris Conto “The Daring Life of Arent Van Curler”\n25 FEB Nancy Newman “Songs and Sounds of the Anti-Rent Movement in Upstate New York” \n04 MAR Kevin Bronner “Albany During The American Revolution: Victory In Upstate New York”\n11 MAR Prof. LaGarrett King “The African Americans’ Revolution”\n18 MAR Craig Siulinski “The Early 20th Century Experience of Polish Immigrants in Schenectady”\n21 MAR Multiple Speakers: “Ten Things You Didn’t Know About the American Revolution”\n25 MAR Wally Wheeler\, “Early Vernacular Architecture in Schenectady County” \n15 APR Dr. Elisabeth Paling Funk “The Dutch World of Washington Irving”

SUMMARY:Virtual Talk: The Dutch World of Washington Irving: Knickerbocker's History of New York and the Hudson Valley Folktales
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Elisabeth Paling Funk will discuss her recent book\, “The Dutch World of Washington Irving: Knickerbocker’s History of New York and the Hudson Valley Folktales.” Washington Irving’s Knickerbocker History of New York is a satire on the seventeenth-century Dutch colony of New Netherland\, on Irving’s own time\, and on mankind in general. It is also the first historical work published in America that is largely devoted to New York’s Dutch beginnings. The Dutch World of Washington Irving demonstrates that the Knickerbocker History is tolerably accurate for its day and is based on available historical sources\, including untranslated Dutch material\, and that the work’s satire tends to cause Irving’s conscientious scholarship to be unjustly dismissed or ignored. \nBorn in Woerden\, the Netherlands\, Elisabeth Paling Funk received her PhD from Fordham University\, taught English at the university level\, and is now a translator\, editor\, and independent scholar. She lives in the Hudson Valley. Her book\, The Dutch World of Washington Irving: Knickerbocker’s History and the Hudson Valley Folktales\, was published by Cornell University Press in June 2025. \n  \nThis is a virtual talk which will be held on Zoom. All SCHS members will receive a link in advance of the program. Non-members may purchase tickets. \nWinter Speaker Series: \n07 JAN Marie Danielle Annette Williams “Loyalists in the Adirondacks”\n14 JAN Laurie Lawlor “Many Voices: Erie\, the Canal that Changed America”\n21 JAN Chuck Henry “First Draft of History: NY State Historic Newspapers”\n28 JAN Ellen Ledoux “Laboring Mothers: Reproducing Women and Work in the 18th Century” \n04 FEB Sarah Wassberg Johnson “Apples in America: A History”\n06 FEB James Taub\, Associate Curator\, Museum of the American Revolution “Threads of Liberty”\n11 FEB Mary Liz Stewart “Underground Railroad”\n21 FEB Chris Conto “The Daring Life of Arent Van Curler”\n25 FEB Nancy Newman “Songs and Sounds of the Anti-Rent Movement in Upstate New York” \n04 MAR Kevin Bronner “Albany During The American Revolution: Victory In Upstate New York”\n11 MAR Prof. LaGarrett King “The African Americans’ Revolution”\n18 MAR Craig Siulinski “The Early 20th Century Experience of Polish Immigrants in Schenectady”\n21 MAR Multiple Speakers: “Ten Things You Didn’t Know About the American Revolution”\n25 MAR Wally Wheeler\, “Early Vernacular Architecture in Schenectady County” \n15 APR Dr. Elisabeth Paling Funk\, “The Dutch World of Washington Irving”
