Josiah Henson: The Man, The Myth, and The Museum
Speaker: Ginger Moodie-Woodward
Ginger Moodie-Woodward, a Museum Educator at the Josiah Henson Museum and Park, will speak about the life of Reverend Josiah Henson, who was enslaved in North Bethesda in the early 1800s and who later escaped to Canada and wrote a narrative about his experiences living enslaved in Montgomery County. She will focus on Henson’s early life on the Riley Plantation in Montgomery County, and his later work as an abolitionist and conductor on the Underground Railroad. She will also discuss Henson’s connection to Harriet Beecher Stowe, whose fictitious character Uncle Tom in her famous 1852 novel Uncle Tom’s Cabin was loosely based on Henson.
Recommended for Ages 12 and Up.
Admission is $5 per person. Tickets available online and onsite.
Parking is only available at Wall Local Park (5900 Executive Blvd. North Bethesda, MD 20852). Limited accessible parking onsite.

Thurgood Marshall: A Trail-Blazing Civil Rights Victory in Montgomery County
Speaker: Ralph Buglass
Civil rights icon Thurgood Marshall delivered an early blow to school segregation right here in Montgomery County—gaining equal pay for the county’s African American teachers in 1937. This little-known legal case is often seen as the first step in Marshall’s successful drive to have separate schools for white and black children declared unconstitutional, as the Supreme Court did 17 years later in a landmark decision. This illustrated talk details this remarkable local story and its national significance. Spoiler alert: the victory came at a tremendous cost to the teacher bringing the case.
Recommended for Ages 12 and Up.
Admission is $5 per person. Tickets available online and onsite.
Parking is only available at Wall Local Park (5900 Executive Blvd. North Bethesda, MD 20852). Limited accessible parking onsite.
