2026 Black History Program

CANCELLED - DUE TO WINTER STORM - Black history Program 2026 - Jubilee Experiment - Dr. Dexter Gabriel

Join us in person for an engaging event with Dr. Dexter Gabriel as he explores the powerful story of Jubilee’s Experiment. Dive into history, discover untold stories, and celebrate the richness of Black heritage together. Don’t miss this chance to connect, learn, and be inspired!

Dexter J. Gabriel’s Jubilee’s Experiment is a thorough examination of how the emancipated British Caribbean colonies entered into the debates over abolition and African American citizenship in the US from the 1830s through the 1860s. It analyzes this public discourse, created by black and white abolitionists, and African Americans more generally in antebellum America, as both propaganda and rhetoric. Simultaneously, Gabriel interweaves the lived experiences of former slaves in the West Indies – their daily acts of resistance and struggles for greater freedoms – to further augment but complicate this debate. An important and timely intervention, Jubilee’s Experiment argues that the measured success of former slaves in the West Indies became a crucial focal point in the struggle against slavery in antebellum North America.
