SUMMARY:Syracuse: How far from Birmingham - The 1963 CORE Protests and the Racial Politics of Urban Renewal
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, February 22nd\, Curator of History Bob Searing will speak about the CORE (the Congress on Racial Equality) protests during the 1960s. \nIn the summer and fall of 1963\, the Congress on Racial Equality\, a significant national civil rights group\,  organized a series of marches to protest the city’s program of urban renewal\, which was destroying much of the 15th ward\, and disproportionately affecting the city’s black community.  CORE‘s actions and the city’s response to them mark an important and often overlooked aspect of the larger civil rights movement\, which is so often focused on the southern United States.  Segregation and racial inequality were not just a southern phenomenon.  The protests of 1963 highlight the important work done by civil rights activists in northern cities like Syracuse to combat a wide-spread system of de-facto segregation that were exacerbated by these urban renewal programs. \nThis event is free and open to the public and will last approximately 45 minutes. \n          \n\nPartial funding for the Onondaga Historical Association comes from the County of Onondaga\, the New York State Council on the Arts\, the City of Syracuse\, and the Onondaga Historical Association Board of Directors. The building of this website was made possible by the John Ben Snow Foundation.

SUMMARY:Ben Walsh to Sign Mayor's Autograph Book
DESCRIPTION:On February 21s\, 2018\, Ben Walsh will become the 52nd Mayor of Syracuse to sign the “Mayor’s Autograph Book.” This book has the autograph of every Mayor of Syracuse since the first Mayor\, Harvey Baldwin\, in 1848. \nThe signing will take place at the Onondaga Historical Museum at 321 Montgomery Street in downtown Syracuse at 10 AM. The event is open to the public. \nMayor Walsh will sign the book on a mid-19th century desk used in the United States House of Representatives from Onondaga Historical Association’s (OHA) collection. Ben’s father\, James\, represented New York’s 25th congressional district from 1993 to 2008. \nWalsh has made history in his short time as Syracuse’s mayor. Ben’s grandfather\, William Francis Walsh\, was Syracuse’s mayor from 1962 to 1969\, making Ben the first descendant of a mayor to lead City Hall. Mayor Walsh is also the first minor-party candidate elected since Louis Will in 1913\, who represented the Progressive Party. \nA number of objects from OHA’s collection will be on display\, including a chair used by Syracuse’s first mayor in 1848\, Harvey Baldwin. \nThis legacy of signatures reminds us of our community’s challenges\, but also of its dreams and accomplishments. The signatures help us remember that these were real people who struggled with the serious issues of their day\, just as our present leaders have their own challenges. And\, although their names may not be familiar to the average citizen today\, their decisions have a legacy that still impacts us in the 21st century. \nOHA will also be making major announcement during the event.

SUMMARY:Native Artists Exhibit Opening featuring work by Nancy Duffy\, Ronnie-Leigh Goeman\, and Stonehorse Goeman. 
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we start the New Year off with a co-exhibition from three local artists on Wednesday\, January 3rd. Artists include the late Nancy Duffy\, Ronnie-Leigh Goeman\, and Stonehorse Goeman. \nDuffy was a former resident of Syracuse and worked at News Channel 9. She is best known as the woman who put together the largest one-day event in Syracuse\, New York – the St. Patrick’s Day Parade – which is held annually in downtown Syracuse. She created a collection of chalk and charcoal drawings that features portraits from people that belong to one of the six nations within the Haudenosaunee Confederacy. The portraits include\, but are not limited to\, Irving Powless Jr.\, Oren Lyons\, Audrey Shenandoah\, Alice Papineau\, Leon Shenandoah\, and Ray Elm. \nThe exhibit will also feature work by Ronnie-Leigh and Stonehorse Goeman. Although Ronnie-Leigh uses traditional Iroquois methods of basket making\, she has evolved and elevated her art to another level\, in that she collaborates and incorporates the work of Stonehorse Goeman. Stonehorse sculpts the bases for the baskets\, thus creating “basket sculpture.” Each basket is elaborately woven\, using ash\, sweet grass\, and embellished with moose hair and quill. Her baskets bring to light the subject of invasive species threatening the native tree and plant life\, thus threatening the cultural future for learning the art of basketry. \nIf you have questions about events at the Center\, please call 315-453-6767 or 315-428-1864. \n

SUMMARY:OHA Book Club: The Myth of Seneca Falls\, by Lisa Tetrault
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, November 11th OHA is hosting its monthly book club featuring the book\, The Myth of Seneca Falls: Memory and the Women’s Suffrage Movement\, 1848-1898 (Gender and American Culture). The book will be available in OHA’s Gift Gallery Museum Store at 321 Montgomery Street.  \n“The story of how the women’s rights movement began at the Seneca Falls convention of 1848 is a cherished American myth. The standard account credits founders such as Elizabeth Cady Stanton\, Susan B. Anthony\, and Lucretia Mott with defining and then leading the campaign for women’s suffrage. In her provocative new history\, Lisa Tetrault demonstrates that Stanton\, Anthony\, and their peers gradually created and popularized this origins story during the second half of the nineteenth century in response to internal movement dynamics as well as the racial politics of memory after the Civil War. The founding mythology that coalesced in their speeches and writings–most notably Stanton and Anthony’s History of Woman Suffrage–provided younger activists with the vital resource of a usable past for the ongoing struggle\, and it helped consolidate Stanton and Anthony’s leadership against challenges from the grassroots and rival suffragists. \nAs Tetrault shows\, while this mythology has narrowed our understanding of the early efforts to champion women’s rights\, the myth of Seneca Falls itself became an influential factor in the suffrage movement. And along the way\, its authors amassed the first archive of feminism and literally invented the modern discipline of women’s history.” – University of North Carolina Press

SUMMARY:The Sacred Waters of the Haudenosaunee and the Trauma of the Erie Canal
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, October 21 at 1:00 PM at the Skä•noñh- Great Law of Peace Center [6680 Onondaga Lake Pkwy\, Liverpool\, NY 13088]\nFor millennia\, waterways in Haudenosaunee territories have been profoundly important.  In the Haudenosaunee cosmology\, water is sacred as fundamental to all life.  Therefore\, while waterways were used for transportation\, as food resources\, and as locations for settlement\, it was widely agreed among Indigenous peoples that they also be protected.  The Erie Canal disrupted the natural flow of water\, essentially damning watersheds so as to flow in an east-west direction.  As Laurence Hauptman has discussed in Conspiracy of Interests: Iroquois Dispossession and the Rise of New York State\, the creation of the Erie Canal corresponded with the dispossession of the Haudenosaunee.  Transformation of the landscape throughout the 19th century had profound environmental effects and traumatic consequences on Haudenosaunee relationships to their lands. \nJake Edwards is a citizen on the Onondaga Nation and sits on the Council of Chiefs.  He has extensive knowledge of Haudenosaunee environmental history and often speaks throughout the world on Haudenosaunee values. A sovereign nation on 7\,300 acres south of Syracuse\, Onondaga is a proud member of the Haudenosaunee (“People of the Long House”)\, an alliance of six Native American nations sometimes referred to as the Iroquois Confederacy or Six Nations.  Other members include the Mohawk\, Oneida\, Cayuga\, Seneca\, and Tuscarora nations. \nPhilip P. Arnold is Associate Professor and Chair of Religion Department at Syracuse University as well as core faculty in Native American and Indigenous Studies.  He is the Founding Director of the Skä·noñh—Great Law of Peace Center (www.skanonhcenter.org/).  His books are Eating Landscape: Aztec and European Occupation of Tlalocan (1999); Sacred Landscapes and Cultural Politics: Planting a Tree (2001); The Gift of Sports: Indigenous Ceremonial Dimensions of the Games We Love (2012) and Urgency of Indigenous Religions (University of New Mexico Press\, forthcoming).  He is a founding member of Neighbors of the Onondaga Nation (NOON)\,(www.peacecouncil.net/NOON/index.html) and established the Doctrine of Discovery Study Group (www.doctrineofdiscovery.org) He is also the President of the Indigenous Values Initiative(www.indigenousvalues.org).

SUMMARY:OHA Book Club: Women in the World of Frederick Douglass
DESCRIPTION:This month’s OHA Book Club will feature a discussion with author Leigh Fought\, Associate Professor of History at Le Moyne College\, about her book\, Women in the World of Frederick Douglass. Douglas Egerton\, author of\, Thunder at the Gates: The Black Civil War Regiments That Redeemed America\, will also be discussing and signing his book.  \nAbout the book (via Amazon): “In Women in the World of Frederick Douglass\, Leigh Fought illuminates the life of the famed abolitionist off the public stage. She begins with the women he knew during his life as a slave: his mother\, from whom he was separated; his grandmother\, who raised him; his slave mistresses\, including the one who taught him how to read; and his first wife\, Anna Murray\, a free woman who helped him escape to freedom and managed the household that allowed him to build his career. Fought examines Douglass’s varied relationships with white women-including Maria Weston Chapman\, Julia Griffiths\, Elizabeth Cady Stanton\, and Ottilie Assing–who were crucial to the success of his newspapers\, were active in the antislavery and women’s movements\, and promoted his work nationally and internationally. She also considers Douglass’s relationship with his daughter Rosetta\, who symbolized her parents’ middle class prominence but was caught navigating between their public and private worlds. Late in life\, Douglass remarried to a white woman\, Helen Pitts\, who preserved his papers\, home\, and legacy for history.” \n \nAbout the book (via Amazon) : In Thunder at the Gates\, Douglas Egerton chronicles the formation and battlefield triumphs of the 54th and 55th Massachusetts Infantry and the 5th Massachusetts Cavalry-regiments led by whites but composed of black men born free or into slavery. He argues that the most important battles of all were won on the field of public opinion\, for in fighting with distinction the regiments realized the long-derided idea of full and equal citizenship for blacks. \nTheir books are available at the Onondaga Historical Association’s Gift Gallery museum store.

SUMMARY:Tuesdays on the Towpath: Onondaga Lake
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Tuesday\, September 19th as OHA hosts Tuesdays on the Towpath and explore Onondaga Lake’s history. \nThis is a free recreational guided bike ride for riders from 8-80 years old. \nWe will meet at the Griffin Visitor Center (106 Lake Drive\, Liverpool 13088) at 6:00 pm. All rides start and end in the same location and finish by dark. Helmets are required. Call Jon Zella (428-1864 extension 315) for more information. \nRides are free and open to the public. \n\nMore about Tuesday’s on the Towpath \nTuesday is the day to be out on the Erie Canalway Trail in the Albany and Syracuse areas\, with organized group rides in both areas providing fun introductions to social cycling. \nAcross the Canalway Trail System\, local cyclists and cycling groups use the trail for outings of varied length and intensity. Some cyclists are just out to enjoy the view\, while others are looking to burn calories or train for an event such as a century ride or self-supported bike tour. Whatever your style\, there’s plenty of room for whatever type of cycling you’d like to do on the Erie Canalway Trail – with nearly 300 miles of off-road route and a variety of trail surfaces. \nThe Tuesday events are guided rides\, generally on the second and fourth Tuesdays of the month. They use either the Old Erie Canal State Park section of the Erie Canalway Trail (ECT)\, on roads that follow the route of the Old Erie Canal through downtown Syracuse and the Inner Harbor\,  or on trails connected to the ECT including the Oneida Rail Trail. Most rides are between 8 and 10 miles\, with stops along the way to talk about Canal features or historic sites. The Tuesday rides attract recreational riders of all ages and abilities\, and on all types of bikes. When possible\, local museums keep special hours for rides. After the rides\, the group heads to local establishments to “test” the local food and craft beverages. \nAccording to CLCBM Executive Director Chris O’Neill\, the ride series has been a great success. She points to two main reasons: it serves the recreational rider\, an under-served market\, and provides a fun link between local cultural heritage\, outdoor recreation\, and area bike shops. Over the years\, Tuesdays on the Towpath has drawn support from Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor\, Parks & Trails New York\, Syracuse Bicycles Shop\, and Mello Velo Bike Shop. An ongoing partnership with the Erie Canal Museum provides historical credibility. Beginning in 2014\, rides became a partnership with Old Erie Canal Community Working Group (OECCWG)\, with communities and organizations alternating as hosts and guides for the weekly rides.

SUMMARY:The History of the Great New York State Fair
DESCRIPTION:Come see historical photographs from the collections of the Geddes Historical Society and listen to Susan Millet tell the stories of the Great New York State Fair. \nThe program begins at 2:00 pm and the cost is $5 at the door. For questions\, call 315-428-1864 x.313. \nThe Fair’s beginnings: \nIn February 1832 the New York State Agricultural Society was founded in Albany by a group of farmers\, legislators\, and others to promote agricultural improvement and local fairs. In spring 1841\, with the promise of an annual state subsidy\, the society planned the nation’s first state fair\, subsequently held on 29-30 Sept 1841 in Syracuse. There an assembled 10\,000-15\,000 people heard speeches by notables and viewed animal exhibits\, a plowing contest\, and samples of manufactured goods for the farm and home. The second New York State Fair\, held in Albany in 1842\, ushered in an era of growth and travel for the institution. During the 1840s the fair’s directors increased attendance and revenues by adding horse racing and other forms of entertainment. From 1842 to 1889 the fair traveled among 11 different cities—Albany\, Auburn\, Buffalo\, Elmira\, New York City\, Poughkeepsie\, Rochester\, Saratoga Springs\, Syracuse\, Utica\, and Watertown—before permanently settling in Onondaga Co in 1890.
