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

SUMMARY:Concerts at Clara's: Bellwether Bayou with Slim Rosa
DESCRIPTION:Continuing the Concert at Clara’s series\, the Clara Barton Missing Soldiers Office Museum is thrilled to welcome Bellwether Bayou and Slim Rosa. \nBellwether Bayou is the solo folk project of Laura Schwartz\, a classically trained violinist who has been moving steadily in a more folksy direction since living in New Orleans\, Ithaca\, and Xi’an\, China. Based in Washington\, D.C.\, Bellwether Bayou brings looping violin and soulful vocals together to create a modern take on classic folk sensibilities.

SUMMARY:Concerts at Clara's: Ballad've
DESCRIPTION:Continuing the Concert at Clara’s series\, the Clara Barton Missing Soldiers Office Museum is thrilled to welcome Ballad’ve. This DC-based folk fusion trio will fill the historic rooms with song in this special performance. \nBallad’ve draws its musical influences from the shape-note singing tradition\, early blues\, old-time\, and such modern popular artists as Gillian Welch\, Anais Mitchell\, and Elliott Smith. Their music intertwines close vocal harmonies with finger-style guitar (provided by veteran songwriter Margaret Wasaff)\, blues banjo (provided by multi-instrumentalist and musicologist Anders Fahey)\, and a range of rhythmic stylings from a literal suitcase full of percussion instruments including the suitcase itself (provided by classically trained percussionist Manny Arciniega). Ballad’ve has previously performed at the Museum as part of the Clara Barton Sessions. \nBallad’ve’s performance is part of the Concerts at Clara’s series. Throughout the year\, different local musicians will perform in the historic rooms of the Missing Soldiers Office. Throughout history\, music has helped bring people together\, it has been a way to share stories and to find common ground. The Clara Barton Missing Soldiers Office is proud to continue this tradition with Concerts at Clara’s. \nDoors open at 7:00 pm\, Concert begins at 7:30 pm. \nGet Your Tickets Now \nTours of the Museum will not be given during the concert. \n

SUMMARY:Restoring Clara Barton’s Missing Soldiers Office
DESCRIPTION:In 1997\, a U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) employee readying a property for sale and demolition made a surprising discovery. Civil War era belongings\, battlefield supplies and painted signs revealed the location of Clara Barton’s long forgotten Missing Soldiers Office. Through a series of precedent-setting partnerships\, the redevelopment came to fruition while the Missing Soldiers Office was restored as a museum\, making the continuing discovery of the spaces as Clara Barton knew them an integral part of the visitor experience. \nJoin Caroline Alderson and Elizabeth Hannold of GSA’s national preservation program for a behind-the-scenes journey through the discovery\, investigation\, restoration and interpretation of the 150 year-old boarding house where Barton lived and worked. See how original components and fragments were integrated into replicated Civil War era gaslighting\, building systems and wall coverings found in the third floor rooms. Probe clues to unsolved mysteries –hidden openings\, graffiti notations\, shifted passageways—peering into view portals and exposure “windows” for a compelling glimpse into Clara Barton’s Civil War refuge.

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. Ashley Bowen shares the story of one such family and the matriarch’s fight for survival\, independence\, and justice. \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.
