In this episode, we explore a story of preservation, community, and the effort to honor Gettysburg’s Black history. The conversation begins with Jean Howard-Green of the Lincoln Cemetery Project Association, who shares her commitment to maintaining the final resting place for many Black citizens of Gettysburg and her inspiring role in the creation of the forthcoming Gettysburg Black History Museum.
Then, we head on-location to the historic Hopkins House, where plans are underway to transform this significant site into the future home of the museum. Andrew Dalton, President and CEO of Gettysburg History, joins the discussion to offer insight into the restoration process and the broader vision behind preserving and interpreting Gettysburg’s African American heritage.
Together, these conversations illuminate how community collaboration and historical stewardship are bringing new life — and long-overdue recognition — to an essential part of Gettysburg’s story.
