The CPH sadly lost one of our own during the summer of 2024, Dr. Aaron Crawford. Scholar, archivist, and editor extraordinaire. We have established a fund in his honor to help grad students reach the archives he loved so much.

We had the pleasure to receive a visit from Howard Lee Martin of Ohio. Howard served as a First Class Seaman in the United States Navy during World War II and the Korean War. We thank him for his amazing service to our country!

#OTD in #History, 1870, Hiram Revels became the 1st Black Member of #Congress. Called “the Fifteenth Amendment in flesh and blood,” Revels took an ardent pro-slavery secessionist's seat—which a Senator said was “a magnificent spectacle of retributive justice.”  #BlackHistoryMonth
