- **Event Description**: Explore how Black New Yorkers marked emancipation through public celebration, using primary sources as historical evidence.About this EventLong before Juneteenth became a federal holiday, Black New Yorkers were debating how best to celebrate emancipation.Join NYPL’s Center for Educators and Schools for a workshop that explores , a free curriculum guide focused on 19th-century emancipation celebrations in New York City. Working with primary sources, educators will examine how Black Americans celebrated hard-fought victories, including the abolition of the international trade in humans in 1808, the abolition of slavery in New York State in 1827, and eventually national emancipation in 1865. The workshop invites participants to consider celebration itself as a historical source—and to explore how joy, resistance, and commemoration can anchor meaningful classroom inquiry.Eligible NY State educators can receive 1.5 CTLE credit hours for participating in this session. Light snacks will be provided.This workshop is part of Lessons from the Stacks, a multi-part professional learning series that invites educators to explore New York City and U.S. history through NYPL’s collections. Each session explores a different resource from NYPL’s curriculum guides, which highlight various historical case studies using primary sources from the Library’s research collections.Educators are encouraged to attend multiple sessions to build a broader picture of how archival materials can support historical thinking, research, and classroom inquiry across topics and time periods.For more information about , visit us online and subscribe to our monthly newsletter—plus, follow us on Instagram, Facebook, or X!
