SUMMARY:Historic Monuments in Washington State: Community Conversation
DESCRIPTION:How should monuments in our community help us understand the past? Your feedback will help us develop tools to enrich public understanding of Washington history. \nOur community conversation moderated by Sarah Pharaon\, will focus on the Firsts Monument erected by the Washington State Historical Society by Officers Row in the Vancouver Historic Reserve. \nAbout the Project: \nIn 2022 the Washington State Historical Society (WSHS) received a grant from the Institute for Museum and Library Services for a project called Dialogue in Place\, a process of examining and addressing 42 monuments placed by our agency around the state between 1900 and 1950. When they were erected\, these monuments were intended to celebrate individuals and events related to settlement on the land that became Washington State. We now recognize that the presence of these monuments\, with their lack of historical context and erasure of the experiences of Tribal Nations\, bring harm to Indigenous communities and limit the public’s access to information that fully represents the complexities of the past. \nWSHS has initiated government-to-government consultation with Tribes to help determine the future of these monuments. In addition to Tribal consultation\, our process involves hosting community conversations around the state to consider the role these objects of public history play in our collective understanding of the past. Feedback from community members will inform our government-to-government dialogue with Tribal Nations and help us develop tools to enrich public understanding of Washington State history. \nRSVP HERE

SUMMARY:The Trickster: How this Ancient Archetype Helps Us to Imagine a Better World
DESCRIPTION:What do Loki\, Banksy\, Bugs Bunny\, Thelonious Monk\, Mae West\, Yoko Ono\, Raven\, Eshù Elégba\, and Muhammad Ali all have in common? Whether deity or human\, all bring Trickster magic to our world.   \nThe Trickster\, a character who animates and enlivens humanity’s oldest stories\, is frequently misunderstood. Wander and wonder with author Shepherd Siegel through the paradoxes\, art\, tricks\, backfires\, pranks\, pratfalls\, and messianic acts that together form this indestructible component of our collective psyche. From that common ground\, we’ll share our own personal encounters with tricksterism and come to an understanding of how the journey from moral indeterminacy to moral discovery can inspire us to imagine and create a better world.  \nShepherd Siegel (he/him) is an author and activist. He started off as a professional rock and jazz musician before becoming a teacher for incarcerated youth and students with disabilities. He earned his doctorate at University of California\, Berkeley\, with studies in anthropology and special education. His recent books\, Disruptive Play and Tricking Power into Performing Acts of Love (a Bronze Winner for an INDIES Book of the Year Award and Silver winner of a CIPA Evvy)\, explore the Trickster in politics and culture.

SUMMARY:Stomp and Shout: The Untold Story of Northwest Rock & Roll
DESCRIPTION:Northwest Rock & Roll’s historical highpoints are well documented—in the late 20th century\, Nirvana\, Soundgarden\, Pearl Jam\, and other grunge gods took the world by storm. Previously\, Seattle’s Queensrÿche and Heart had ruled the heavy metal realm. And prior to that\, The Wailers\, The Kingsmen\, Paul Revere and The Raiders\, and The Sonics had all fueled local teen dances with garage-rock versions of the region’s signature song\, “Louie Louie.”   \nYet these iconic bands are only half the story. In this talk\, join author Peter Blecha to discover the lesser-known but vitally important bands and scenes that laid the foundation for what was to come—finally connecting all the dots between the fabled Northwest era of Ray Charles\, Quincy Jones\, and Jimmy Hendrix\, and the R&B-spiked roots of a distinct regional artform: the “Original Northwest Sound.”   \nPeter Blecha (he/him) is the director of the Northwest Music Archives\, an award-winning author\, a founding curator at MoPop\, and a longtime staff historian at HistoryLink.org. Blecha’s newest book\, Stomp and Shout: R&B and the Origins of Northwest Rock and Roll\, draws on his deep knowledge as a leading expert on Pacific Northwest music history to chronicle both well-known and overlooked icons of the early Northwest Sound.

SUMMARY:Liberty Factory: A Look at the Kaiser Shipyards
DESCRIPTION:The Clark County Historical Museum (CCHM) welcomes author and maritime journalist\, Peter Marsh\, to the Speaker Series program with his presentation\, “Liberty Factory: A Look at the Kaiser Shipyards\,” on Thursday\, July 11\, 2024\, at 7:00 pm. This presentation will occur at the Clark County Historical Museum (1511 Main Street\, Vancouver\, WA 98660.) \nIn this talk\, Peter Marsh will describe the amazing history of Henry Kaiser’s WWII Oregon shipyards and their impact on the ports and populations of the lower Columbia River from 1940 to 1945. \nPeter Marsh was born and raised in Greenwich in SE London–the home of 0 degrees longitude and GMT. He has lived in the USA for over 50 years and began building and sailing a 20’ micro cruiser in Portland in 1981. After sailing from Olympia to Glacier Bay and back twice in 1982 and 1988\, he began reporting about yachts and commercial craft on the lower Columbia River for the Freshwater News boating paper. In the 1990s\, he became acquainted with Larry Barber\, the last marine editor of the Oregonian\, who continued writing about the local baiting scene after he retired. \nBarber had been the leading reporter covering WWII ship building in Portland\, especially the achievements of Henry Kaiser’s three emergency shipyards. He reprised some of these stories for the boating paper\, most notably the exploits of the Kaiser yard in St. Johns in North Portland that launched 334 Liberty ships in four years. He called the story “Liberty Ship Capital of the World\,” and continued to recall the incredible exploits of Kaiser’s two Portland yards and the Vancouver yard\, “the Escort Carrier Champions\,” until he died in 1996. \nLarry’s widow gave Peter her husband’s archives but it was another 20 years before he finally began to seriously study them with the goal of producing a book to mark the 75th anniversary of the end of the war in 2020. This is the first book to review the region’s forgotten history of wartime shipbuilding\, which employed over 180\,000 people—30\,000 of them women who were trained in a few weeks to become welders\, machinists\, electricians etc. \n“Liberty Factory: A Look at the Kaiser Shipyards” is part of the CCHM’s ongoing Speaker Series\, which features talks by local historians\, authors\, and experts on a variety of topics related to Clark County history. \nThe CCHM Speaker Series is presented by the Clark County Historic Preservation Commission. This month’s presentation is sponsored by the Building Industry Association. Admission to the presentation is $5 for the general public and free for CCHM members\, veterans\, and active-duty military personnel. \nFor more information about the Clark County Historical Museum or the Speaker Series\, please contact us at outreach@cchmuseum.org\, visit the museum’s website at cchmuseum.org\, or call 360-993-5679.
