SUMMARY:Special Exhibition - "The Dead of Antietam"
DESCRIPTION:When Alexander Gardner’s stunning photographs of the Antietam battlefield were publicly displayed in 1862\, they changed how Americans saw war forever. For a limited time\, you can relive that sobering exhibition at the Clara Barton Missing Soldiers Office. \nA photograph captured in the aftermath of the Battle of Antietam by Alexander Gardner. (LOC) \nOn March 1\, 2018\, the acclaimed exhibition “The Dead of Antietam” will return to the Clara Barton Missing Soldiers Office in Washington\, DC. The exhibit recreates and explores the original photographs taken in the days after the bloodiest day in American history\, the Battle of Antietam\, on September 17\, 1862. When the photographs were first publicly displayed by Mathew Brady in New York in 1862\, they shocked a nation and showed the true nature of warfare – the anonymous dead laying row upon row on an American landscape. \n“Mr. Brady has done something to bring home to us the terrible reality and earnestness of war\,” wrote the New York Times after the original exhibition began in October 1862. “If he has not brought bodies and laid them in our dooryards and along the streets\, he has done something very like it.” \nCaptured by Washington photographer Alexander Gardner\, the images changed the perception of war in the United States and continue to reverberate in our own era as we grapple with human consequences of the continuing conflicts around the world. Now you\, too\, can experience the images that once captivated and horrified a nation in a 19th century setting.  The exhibit proves that history repeats itself as it provokes discussion on today’s military censorship of visual images of bodies and casualties returning from war zones. \nVisiting the exhibition is included with admission to the Clara Barton Missing Soldiers Office Museum and is free for Museum members. The exhibition will be on display at the Missing Soldiers Office from March 1\, 2018 until May 19\, 2018 and will be available during normal operating hours (11:00am – 6:00pm\, Thurs-Sat) and by appointment. Contact Reservations Coordinator Katie Reichard for more information about appointments and group visits: katie.reichard@civilwarmed.org or 301-695-1864. \nThe exhibit restages the original photographic images\, allowing visitors to experience what viewers did more than 155 years ago. Display prints have been made to the same dimensions and style of the originals from high-definition Library of Congress digital files. To enhance the visitor’s experience\, there will be a 3-D theatre to view the photos\, which were shot with stereoscopic cameras\, in the way they were originally intended. \nVisitors will explore how American society portrayed death at the start of the Civil War\, how these photos were received in 1862\, and how the coverage of war has evolved since the publication of Gardner’s images into the present day. “The Dead of Antietam” exhibition at the Missing Soldiers Office was created by Bob Kozak. \nGardner’s studio was also an integral part of Clara Barton’s everyday life during the Civil War. Located one block from Barton’s boardinghouse on 7th Street\, the studio became a hub of war-time activity as Gardner experimented with new photographic techniques and sold copies of his photographs. Like Gardner\, Barton was also on the battlefield at Antietam and witnessed its slaughter firsthand. \nFor more information about the exhibition\, contact Jake Wynn at jake.wynn@civilwarmed.org.

SUMMARY:The Freedmen's Bureau in Virginia
DESCRIPTION:Hear the remarkable story of the Freedmen’s Bureau in war-torn Virginia after the Civil War.  \nFreedmen’s Bureau office in Richmond\, VA. (Harper’s Weekly\, December 23\, 1865) \nEmmanuel Dabney will discuss  the Bureau of Refugees\, Freedmen\, and Abandoned Lands (usually referred to as the Freedmen’s Bureau) work in Virginia in the aftermath of the Civil War at the Missing Soldiers Office on April 19\, 2018 at 6 PM. The presentation will be “pay-what-you-please.” \nThe Freedmen’s Bureau was created in March 1865 to oversee the abandoned property of Southerners and provide aid to white Unionist refugees and the recently freed people. However\, competing viewpoints from white Republicans\, Democrats\, and black and white Southerners created much disappointment for the recently freed people\, who pretty rapidly took up most of the Bureau’s time and effort. \nDespite racialized violence\, the Bureau was able to provide some assistance to the freed people and help lay the groundwork for their futures in the aftermath of generations of enslavement and their own resistance to slavery. \nEmmanuel Dabney is the curator at Petersburg National Battlefield in Petersburg\, Virginia.

SUMMARY:Clara Jones: A Forgotten Civil War Nurse
DESCRIPTION:Discover the story of Clara Jones\, a full-time teacher whose remarkable wartime experiences included assisting the wounded aboard a hospital ship\, and at hospitals in Alexandria\, Virginia\, and at Gettysburg\, Pennsylvania. \n \nHistorian John Lustrea will tell the story of forgotten Civil War nurse Clara Jones at the Clara Barton Missing Soldiers Office Museum on January 27 at 11 AM. \nSince entering the public record in 2003 when Clara Jones’ letters were donated to the museum\, very few have read them. They tell an incredible tale of sacrifice and compassion. Jones was an unmarried 28 year old single woman when the Civil War broke out. While she wanted desperately to rush to the front to comfort sick and wounded soldiers\, she needed the pay of her full-time teaching job to support herself. That did not stop her from traveling to the front on school breaks of any length. Come hear about her amazing efforts. \nJohn Lustrea is the blog editor and website manager at the National Museum of Civil War Medicine. He received his MA in Public History from the University of South Carolina\, Columbia. John spent four summers working at Harpers Ferry National Historical Park as a seasonal ranger.

SUMMARY:A Civil Life in an Uncivil Time
DESCRIPTION:In October 1862\, Julia Wilbur traveled alone from Rochester\, New York\, with the well-intentioned\, but ill-formed idea to help African Americans escaping slavery by crossing into Union controlled areas. She ended up in Alexandria\, Virginia\, where she worked closely with Harriet Jacobs and against the male powers-that-be. \nJoin us at the Clara Barton Missing Soldiers Office on Thursday\, December 14 at 6 PM as author Paula Tarnapol Whitacre discusses her research into the Civil War experiences of Julia Wilbur. \nA Civil Life in an Uncivil Time: Julia Wilbur’s Struggle for Purpose is the first biography about this unheralded\, but remarkable woman. Using Wilbur’s diaries and other primary sources\, Whitacre traces how Wilbur took this bold step and what she accomplished when she came south. After the war and until her death in 1895\, Wilbur lived in Washington\, following in the footsteps of Clara Barton (whom she knew) by working in the Patent Office and fighting for women’s rights. \nWhitacre is a writer and editor who has lived in Alexandria since the mid-1980s. A graduate of Johns Hopkins University\, she worked at The Washington Post and as a Foreign Service Officer earlier in her career. She is on the boards of Friends of Alexandria Archaeology and the Civil War Roundtable of Washington\, DC. \nThis is a pay-what-you-please event. \nPre-Register Now

SUMMARY:Cut It Off! A Halloween Amputation Demonstration
DESCRIPTION:Join the Obscura Society as we get into the Halloween spirit and turn the Clara Barton Missing Soldiers Office into an impromptu operating theater! \nWe’ll watch a Civil War medical historian from the National Museum of Civil War Medicine amputate a gel leg using authentic 19th-century tools and techniques. The leg\, made from foam and simulated bone\, looks\, feels\, and even sounds (!) remarkably like the real thing. Inspired by the creepy (and fictional) Case of George Dedlow\, we’ll also discuss spiritualism and seances in the nineteenth century. \nMuseum staff will also bring some bone saws\, miné balls\, medical kits\, and other objects related to the history of amputation for us to look at. They will be on hand to answer your questions about surgery in the pre-antiseptic\, pre-antibiotic era. \nADDITIONAL DETAILS\n\nThe event costs $30. The event requires advance tickets only\, and all sales are final. There will be no refunds or exchanges. Buy your tickets here\nThis location is easily accessible via bus and Metro’s red\, yellow\, and green lines. For more information on getting to the museum\, click here.\nMetered street parking is available but can be extremely difficult to find. If you plan to drive\, please give yourself ample time to locate parking in the area around the Verizon Center.\nPhotographs are encouraged (but flash photography is not allowed).\nThis adventure is PG (it’s gonna be gory).\nA portion of the ticket sales will be donated to the National Museum of Civil War Medicine.\nShare photos on Twitter and Instagram with us @atlasobscura\, and @ClaraBartonMSO using the hashtag #ObscuraSociety!\n\nQUESTIONS?\nContact Ashley at ashley.bowen@atlasobscura.com.

SUMMARY:Seeking Asylum
DESCRIPTION:Securing Care for Mentally Ill African Americans After the Civil War\nOne of the biggest challenges facing the post Civil War south was the vast number of African Americans who required medical care. The majority of established hospitals were reluctant to accept them as patients\, and those that suffered from mental illness faced the greatest amount of discrimination. Historian Craig Swenson will discuss how the Freedmen’s Bureau established a system of hospitals to handle this growing need and how a former Confederate hospital in Richmond became one of the world’s first asylums dedicated solely to the treatment of African American patients. \nCraig Swenson holds a Bachelor’s Degree in history from the University of Baltimore and currently completing his Master’s Degree in Museum Studies at the Harvard University Extension School. His research deals with medical and architectural history with a focus on mental health. He is currently employed at the National Building Museum where he most recently worked on The Architecture of an Asylum\, an exhibition on St. Elizabeth’s Hospital. He is also an intern at the Museum. \nPre-Register Now

SUMMARY:Troubled Refuge
DESCRIPTION:By the end of the Civil War\, nearly half a million slaves had taken refuge behind Union lines\, in what became known as “contraband camps.” These refugee camps were crowded\, dangerous places\, yet some 12-15 percent of the Confederacy’s slave population took almost unimaginable risks to reach them\, and they became the first places many Northerners came to know former slaves en masse. \nRanging from stories of individuals to those of armies on the move to the debates in Congress\, Dr. Chandra Manning will explore what the camps were really like and how former slaves and Union soldiers warily united there to help end slavery\, win the war\, and forge a new version of citizenship that would matter not just for former slaves\, but for all Americans. \nDr. Chandra Manning is an accomplished historian and author of Troubled Refuge and When this Cruel War Was Over. She graduated summa cum laude from Mount Holyoke College in 1993 and received the M.Phil from the National University of Ireland\, Galway\, in 1995. She took her Ph.D. at Harvard in 2002. Manning has taught history at Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma\, Washington\, and was Associate Professor of History at Georgetown University. Currently\, she serves as Special Advisor to the Dean of the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard University. \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Weeping No More
DESCRIPTION:Southern Black Women and the U.S. Pension Bureaucracy\nThis talk will explore how southern black women artfully navigated the U.S. pension bureaucracy to gain recognition as Union widows. Based on her extensive research of black soldiers’ wives and widows at the National Archives\, Dr. Brandi Brimmer will reconstruct the pension application process and evidentiary obstacles newly freed black women faced in their attempt to claim and maintain their position on the pension roster. Over the course of the presentation\, she will demonstrate how these women utilized the U.S. pension bureaucracy to air their grievances and remake widowhood on their own terms. \nBrandi C. Brimmer is a historian of African Americans in the United States with a particular interest in women/gender\, racial formation\, and sexuality in late-nineteenth-century America. Her book-in-progress analyzes black women’s relationship to the U.S. legal system and to federal institutions in post-Civil War America.  Brimmer’s articles have appeared in the Journal of the Civil War Era and the Journal of Southern History.  She is an assistant professor in the Department of History and Geography at Morgan State University.  Her talk this afternoon will explore the life\, labors\, and travails of black women who had to artfully negotiate the U.S. pension bureaucracy to gain legal recognition as a Union widow. \nPre-register Now

SUMMARY:Clara Barton - An American Life
DESCRIPTION:Exploring the incredible life and career of an American icon. \nHow did a shy girl born on a New England farm in 1821 break through the barriers that so often confined women to the domestic sphere? How did she go on to have a sixty year career of public service that touched people all over the world? How did she found the American Red Cross\, an organization that still helps people in need today? And what gave this woman the courage to go where the fighting was taking place during the American Civil War\, a place women did not go? \nThis illustrated talk by Kevin Patti from Clara Barton National Historic Site will use photographs from Clara Barton’s life and times to answer these questions and describe the development of her remarkable career. The talk will also describe Miss Barton’s legacy as an advocate for the expansion of rights for African Americans and women. The audience will learn of her role as a pioneer of emergency preparedness\, First Aid and natural disaster relief work\, as well as public education in New Jersey. \nKevin Patti\, a twenty year veteran of the National Park Service\, has served as a Park Ranger at Clara Barton National Historic Site since 2005. At the request of the State Department in 2012 he traveled to Armenia to speak about Clara Barton and the relief effort she lead in 1896 to help Armenians who were affected by massacre. He has been featured on CSPAN leading a tour of Clara Barton National Historic Site. Mr. Patti has also worked at Glen Echo Park in Maryland\, Great Falls Park in Virginia\, Theodore Roosevelt Island and the Old Post Office Tower in Washington\, DC. \nPre-Register Now

SUMMARY:The Widow Maker: How the Pension Office Forced Women to Fight for Survival After the Civil War
DESCRIPTION:After the Civil War\, thousands of women were left to care for their wounded warriors. These women walked a tightrope between independent decision-making and technical dependence on their invalid male relative. Dr. Ashley Bowen shares the story of one such family and the matriarch’s fight for survival\, independence\, and justice. \nThis is part of our “After the War” series. Once a month\, speakers will explore how citizens fought to rebuild  their lives after the Civil War. \n\nWhen soldiers went marching home\, there was no support system in place to care for their physical or psychological wounds. Instead\, the Pension Office provided varying amounts of financial support to each soldier\, and expected the women of the house to handle everything else. \nThe wives of Civil War soldiers were responsible for the “women’s work” of nursing their veterans—shaving their veterans\, helping them eat\, and bathing them—while also taking on many of the responsibilities that defined a nineteenth century father and husband\, including manual labor\, financial decision making\, and farm management. \nWhen their husbands died\, many of these women were told they would not receive their widow’s pension. According to the War Department\, by caring for their husbands\, the women had proven themselves too independent to need financial assistance. \nThis talk will focus around one of these women: Virginia Bedor. Her husband\, Peter Bedor\, fought as private in the 1st Connecticut Heavy Artillery\, was arrested for mutiny\, fought at Gettysburg\, witnessed the fall of Petersburg\, and had been treated for acute mania at the Government Hospital for the Insane. Over the course of their nearly forty-year marriage\, Virginia raised nine children; nursed  her now ill\, violent\, and temperamental husband; became Peter’s legal guardian; negotiated her husband’s care in jails and asylums; stewarded a Kansas farm to a degree of profitability; and navigated a complicated bureaucratic system to obtain a pension for her husband. When she applied for a widow’s pension after Peter’s death in 1904\, the Pension Office refused her request on the grounds that her success as a guardian\, farmer\, and manager rendered her no longer dependent. \nThe Bedor’s story\, like all family stories\, is unique but by no means exceptional. Their correspondence with the Pension Office reveals how late nineteenth century American women negotiated gender relations inside and outside the home\, the expansion of asylums and soldier’s homes\, and shifting government narratives of the ‘deserving poor.’ \nBowen’s research into the Bedor family provides a window into the shifting gender and social service landscape of post-Civil War America. Virginia Bedor’s fight with the pension office makes clear the ways in which the United States federal government’s policies demanded that women present themselves as dependent\, deserving widows and incapable of providing for themselves without the aid of a husband or father—regardless of her own success as a caregiver\, farmer\, and business woman. \nPre-Register Now
