  • PROJECT TITLE: Civil Rights Exhibition
    Application PDF Maryland Historical Society Civil Rights Exhibition Request: $50,000.00 Baltimore National Total Match: $50,000.00 Baltimore City PROJECT TITLE: Civil Rights Exhibition PROJECT SUMMARY: The Maryland Historical Society (MdHS) seeks support for the design and fabrication of its major FY21 exhibition focused on African American Civil Rights. The following collections and smaller initiatives that MdHS has presented since 2013 will culminate in this exhibit to tell the larger story about the African American Civil Rights Movement that extends from the Reconstruction Era to the present day: (i) MdHS stewards 6,000 photographs by Paul Henderson, a prominent Afro-American Newspaper photographer. Henderson documented many integral Civil Rights moments from the 1940s to 60s that captured important events, groups, and people, such as the protest at segregated Ford's Theatre in Baltimore, NAACP membership campaign meetings at Sharp Street Church, the Baltimore Elite Giants Negro League baseball team, Morgan State College, Dr. Lillie May Carroll Jackson (head of the NAACP, 1935-1970) and family, Thurgood Marshall with Dr. Carl Murphy (editor-publisher of the Afro-American newspaper), Henderson's photography equipment, and ephemera from his manuscript collection. (ii) Preserve the Baltimore Uprising 2015 Archive Project (PBU) is a digital repository that preserves digital media, including photographs, videos, oral histories, and city documents, created by participants and witnesses to the protests and unrest that followed the death of Freddie Gray on April 19, 2015. MdHS produced a free online resource presenting this media and ensuring that the historical record includes diverse perspectives from people whose lives have been directly impacted by these complex events.
