SUMMARY:Exhibit: Black History Month Pop Ups
DESCRIPTION:The UWM Libraries are  presenting three special pop-up exhibits in honor of Black History Month in the Libraries’ Distinctive Collections: the American Geographical Society Library. Special Collections\, and the Archives. \nThe American Geographical Society Library’s exhibit focuses on Black Geographies and Cartographies\, including the Underground Railroad\, the Harlem Renaissance\, and modern forms of Black Place-Making. It also features a special focus on the prolific Black Cartographer Louise E. Jefferson whose work challenged contemporary depictions of marginalized people and carved a new space for Black Geographies in the mid-20th Century. \nThe Archives Department exhibit traces the history of public education in Milwaukee over the last 75 years\, with a particular focus on efforts to desegregate Milwaukee Public Schools. \nThe Special Collections display highlights African American art\, including original prints\, livres de artistes\, letterpress printing\, and photography. Artists and poets highlighted are Margaret Walker\, Elizabeth Catlett\, Maya Angelou\, John Biggers\, Wendel A. White\, Faith Ringgold\, Amos Paul Kennedy\, Jr.\, and the quilting women of Gee’s Bend\, Alabama. Also on display in relation to Wende White’s photographic essay is a first edition of Solomon Northup’s Twelve Years a Slave published in 1853. \nThe pop-up exhibits are on dislplay in these areas of the library: \n\nAmerican Geographical Society Library: third floor\, east wing\, Monday-Friday\, 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m.\nArchives – third floor\, west wing Monday-Friday\, 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m.\nSpecial Collections – fourth floor Monday-Friday\, 10 a.m.-5 p.m.\n\n
