Limited Seating - Registration Required (use Tickets link)Emancipation was not a single moment, but a staggered process shaped by geography, military presence, and the timing of freedom’s announcement. Join us as we explore how freedom arrived in waves across the South, marked locally by dates like May 20th and Juneteenth. Program speaker and historian Dion Jenkins will trace how emancipation unfolded unevenly, with some communities learning of freedom months or even years after the Emancipation Proclamation—reminding us that liberation was both a legal act and a lived, local experience.
