#slaverypublichistory: "Traces & Memories of Slavery in the Atlantic World" was also this weekend. Here's the hashtag #slaveryarchive

Okay one more: Bogues points to resurgance of racism, including in science journals. I want to learn more later #slaverypublichistory

The storify is updated from yesterday & will be updated later this weekend #slaverypublichistory

At this point, my ability to tweet, retweet, storify & still listen has hit its limit. Just listening & knitting now. #slaverypublichistory

That's a big first question: where do we go from here? #slaverypublichistory

Bogues: It is about people attempting to try to live a little bit better. Public History's work is to help with this #slaverypublichistory

Bogues: What keeps hope is always the possibility of life. History isn't an arc. It is more wayward. #slaverypublichistory

Bogues: the question of naming is important for creativity & hope. Hope is not the opposite of despair. #slaverypublichistory

Bogues: When visitors @NMAAHC say "This is our story" it responds to how racialized slavery erases African history. #slaverypublichistory

Bogues: It is not about finding a single truth, but how past shapes our society #slaverypublichistory

Bogues: why is the truth repressed, or seen as an aberration as a means of avoiding truth telling. #slaverypublichistory

Blight: work brings hope. We need hope. We also need a sense of tragedy so we stop being surprised all the time #slaverypublichistory

Blight: the term hope came up a lot at this conference. How did Douglass keep hope? In part it was from his work. #slaverypublichistory

Blight: wariness is needed when the elegiac moves away from politics into just feeling but it can also go both ways. #slaverypublichistory

Blight recalls an aca panel on race as a construct not biological, but does that matter when it isn't in public memory #slaverypublichistory

Blight: we've talked a lot about history & memory but they aren't the same. History's a profession; we all have memory #slaverypublichistory

Blight remembers teaching Black Hist when there weren't textbooks. Also there's always politics to shared history #slaverypublichistory

I'd add @tulelakenps to this list as a huge change in whose histories are told #slaverypublichistory #loyaltyquestionaire #noNo

Descendants of that sale have ceremonially visited @Georgetown but @DrMChatelain reminds us this is not Roots. #slaverypublichistory

Ferreira introduces speakers in the order of the program, which is not the order in which they will speak #slaverypublichistory

Ferreira: yet there aren't memorials to this history. He wonders re subaltern voices & enfranchisement of black people #slaverypublichistory
