SUMMARY:Hidden Histories: The South Vietnamese Side of the Vietnam War
DESCRIPTION:Clark County Historical Museum and Humanities Washington\, as part of the 2023 CCHM Speaker Series\, are excited to have Julie Pham bring her impactful presentation “Hidden Histories: The South Vietnamese Side of the Vietnam War” to Southwest Washington. The event will occur on Thursday\, April 6\, 2023 in person at the Clark County Historical Museum (1511 Main Street\, Vancouver\, WA 98660). Doors open at 5 p.m. and the event begins at 7 p.m. \nThe Vietnam War is seen by much of the Western world as being fought between the Americans and North Vietnamese Communists\, with the South Vietnamese largely absent. Yet many Vietnamese refugees who came to America after the war served in the South Vietnamese military\, and there is little recognition and understanding of their contributions and role in the war. In fact\, in American and Vietnamese Communist histories\, the South Vietnamese are painted as corrupt\, apathetic sidekicks to the Americans. How did the South Vietnamese military really experience the Vietnam War? Historian Julie Pham draws from interviews she conducted with 40 South Vietnamese military veterans in the United States\, and illuminates how people can remember historical events differently. \nJulie Pham (she/her) is the CEO of CuriosityBased\, a consulting practice focused on fostering curiosity in the workplace. Her family owns Northwest Vietnamese News. She published Their War: The Perspectives of the South Vietnamese Military in the Words of Veteran-Emigres in 2019. She earned her PhD in history from the University of Cambridge as a Gates Cambridge Scholar. \nPham lives in Seattle. \nThe CCHM Speaker Series is sponsored by the Humanities Washington\, Clark County Historic Preservation Commission\, and the League of Women Voters of Clark County. Thanks to support from Humanities Washington this event is free to the public. \nAttendees are encouraged to arrive early\, as seating is limited. \nFor more information\, contact the museum at 360-993-5679 or outreach@cchmuseum.org. \nAbout Humanities Washington\nHumanities Washington is a nonprofit organization dedicated to opening minds and bridging divides by creating spaces to explore different perspectives.

SUMMARY:I am Also Entitled to be Recognized: The Journey of Moses Williams\, Buffalo Soldier
DESCRIPTION:Clark County Historical Museum kicks off its 2023 History on Tap season at the Kiggins Theatre on Thursday\, Apr. 20\, 2023 with historian Gregory P. Shine presenting “I am Also Entitled to be Recognized: The Journey of Moses Williams\, Buffalo Soldier.” The program will explore the life\, military service\, and Pacific Northwest connections of Sgt. Moses Williams – a decorated Buffalo Soldier and Medal of Honor recipient – and share new research that sheds light on key turning points in Williams’ fascinating life. \nDoors open at 6:30 p.m. and the event begins at 7 p.m. \nWilliams\, a nineteenth century U.S. Army soldier who served in the Ninth U.S. Cavalry – one of four all-African American regiments known as Buffalo Soldiers – and at several western posts as an ordnance sergeant\, is buried in the Vancouver Barracks post cemetery. As Shine’s program will illustrate\, Williams’ journey from rural Louisiana\, through assignments at remote forts in Texas\, Oklahoma\, New Mexico\, Arizona\, Colorado\, Nebraska\, and Oregon\, reveals much about the history of the American West. \nGregory P. Shine is a historian\, writer and educator who has been connecting people to the history of the American West for over 30 years. Throughout his career\, Greg has worked for the U.S. National Park Service – including 14 years locally as the chief ranger and historian at Fort Vancouver N.H.S. – and the U.S. Bureau of Land Management\, where he currently leads the agency’s national Interpretation program. Greg also taught history at Portland State University for nearly a decade. An active community volunteer\, he is a longstanding member of the editorial board of the Oregon Encyclopedia\, a project of the Oregon Historical Society. Greg is a popular speaker on topics related to Pacific Northwest history and has appeared on episodes of PBS’s History Detectives and OPB’s Oregon Experience. Most recently\, Greg was a consulting historian to the documentary film Buffalo Soldiers: Fighting on Two Fronts. \nBefore the main event\, see if you can figure out which tidbits of history are true and which ones are fake in our newest segment\, “A History and A Lie”. And watch as the Passages to Success crew battle for the title of “King of Trivia” during Clark County Trivia. \nAdmission to History on Tap is $15 in advance/$12 for CCHM Members\, $18 at the door. Tickets can be purchased at the Kiggins Theatre Box Office or online at kigginstheatre.com/movies/history-on-tap. \nThe History on Tap season is brought to you by My Family Guide.
