SUMMARY:Landmark Lecture: George Washington\, Slavery and America's Historical Memory (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Drawing on research from his latest book\, historian John Garrison Marks will explore how generations of Americans have remembered\, forgotten\, manipulated and wielded Washington’s entanglements with slavery over the past 250 years.

He earned his Ph.D. in history from Rice University.
