Lecture being given at an old restored barn. A Black woman stands at a podium in the right of the picture, wearing a reproduction of a 19th century dress and shift underneath. The dress is brightly colored with a modern chartreuse, black, and red design. She is wearing a dark green headwrap tied with some height. She is holding notes in her left hand and there is a laptop in front of her. She is gesturing with her right hand at the screen that is displayed to the audience. There is a picture on the screen of a small silver coin with a small hole at the top that is labeled “pierced coins.” The audience is mostly full with very few open seats.
Lecture yesterday by Cheyney McKnight was awesome. I love watching her stuff online, and she is even more engaging and fun in person! 😍 #notyourmommashistory #blackhistorymonth www.notyourmommashistory.com
