Welcome to 1856 Project Podcast Season One

Abstract

Welcome to the 1856 project podcast presented by the 1856 project, the University of Maryland's chapter of Universities Studying Slavery (USS). USS is a collaborative group of universities that work together to address the impact of human bondage within their respective institutions. Our podcast explores the history of African Americans in Maryland and on campus, examines the University's ties to American slavery, and presents our findings to those who can take action toward repair.
