SUMMARY:History Revealed: Columbus Memorial
DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nHistory Revealed: A Toast to History at Waldmann Series\nPeter DeCarlo\nMinnesota’s Columbus Memorial: Immigration\, Colonialism\, and Memory on the State Capitol Grounds\nWaldmann Brewery & Wurstery\nFree and open to all. \nJoin RCHS for History Revealed\, our program series featuring presentations and tours from the best of local historians\, authors and archaeologists\, with a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \nOn October 12\, 1931 a crowd estimated at 25\,000 gathered to celebrate the unveiling of a memorial to Christopher Columbus on the grounds of the Minnesota State Capitol. An association of Italian American Minnesotans led the creation of the monument and presented it as a gift to state. They used the monument to commemorate Columbus – who they argued was the “first American\,” to assert their citizenship\, and to claim their place as white people in the United States. In the white discourse surrounding the monument\, Indigenous peoples and the genocide perpetrated by colonists against them were erased from history. \nToday\, statues of Columbus are seen by many as symbols of violence\, white supremacy\, and colonialism. The Columbus Memorial and its continued existence in a city and state that have proclaimed “Indigenous Peoples’ Day” reveal how particular histories and memories are established\, disseminated\, challenged\, and revised. Should the Columbus Memorial continue to stand on the grounds of Minnesota’s State Capitol? \nJoin Peter DeCarlo\, a research historian at the Minnesota Historical Society\, for this discussion on the historical and contemporary contexts of the Columbus Memorial. \nRegistration is needed to attend presentations. Space is limited\, first-come\, first served.\nPresentation is free.\nRegistration form available here.\nOr call 651-222-0701 or email membership@rchs.com. \nIt’s RCHS Day at Waldmann Brewery & Wurstery!\nOn the second Thursday of each month\, 10% of all sales to RCHS members and their guests will be donated to the Ramsey County Historical Society! \nRCHS members and supporters are encouraged to come and enjoy a lunch/dinner/drink at Waldmann throughout the day\, or time your dinner so that you can stay for the presentation immediately after. So come on in and raise a toast to history and support RCHS! \nMention that you are a member\, supporter or friend of RCHS to your server\, and they will make sure that your tab is counted toward Waldmann’s support. \n \nHistory Revealed: A Toast to History at Waldmann Series\nWaldmann Brewery & Wurstery\nUpcoming Dates\nPresentation Details & Times TBA\nJune 14\, 2018\nJuly 12\, 2018\nAugust 9\, 2018\nSeptember 13\, 2018\nOctober 11\, 2018\nNovember 8\, 2018\nDecember 13\, 2018 \n \n2018 History Revealed Programs\n\nSee the History Revealed information page for updates and programs.\nOr check our Calendar for these and other programs at the Gibbs Farm\, and more!

SUMMARY:History Revealed: The Case of Ed Phelan
DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nHistory Revealed: A Toast to History at Waldmann Series\nThursday\, January 10\, 2019\nGary Bruggeman\, Minnesota’s Oldest Murder Mystery\, the Case of Ed Phelan\nWaldmann Brewery & Wurstery\nFree and open to all. \nJoin RCHS for History Revealed\, our program series featuring presentations and tours from the best of local historians\, authors and archaeologists\, with a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \nOn September 27\, 1839\, the battered body of a middle-aged Irishman was found by some Dakota boys washed up along the Mississippi River shore. It was the body of Sgt. John Hays\, a popular former soldier\, who\, prior to his disappearance twenty-one days earlier\, had been sharing a log shanty a few miles upriver from the cave with his friend and business partner\, Edward Phelan (or Phalen). Before the year was over\, Phelan was arrested and charged with the murder of his friend. \nThis is the first book to focus on this historic murder and the first thorough biography of Phelan\, a notorious pioneer intimately involved in the making of St. Paul and founding of Minnesota. Was he guilty? All reports and records of Phelan’s trial were mysteriously lost and no newspapers covered the story. However\, in 1994\, St. Paul historian Gary Brueggemann made an amazing discovery in the Minnesota Historical Society archives – hidden in the papers of Joseph R. Brown was his handwritten transcription of the Hays’ murder hearing. \nUsing this record\, other primary sources\, and drawing from decades of studying Minnesota and St. Paul history\, Gary Bruggeman will present the case of Ed Phelan and his trial for the murder of John Hays. \nRegistration is needed to attend presentations. Space is limited\, first-come\, first served. \nThe presentation is currently FULL.\nTo be added to the waiting list\, please call 651-222-0701 or email membership@rchs.com. \nIt’s RCHS Day at Waldmann Brewery & Wurstery!\nOn the second Thursday of each month\, 10% of all sales to RCHS members and their guests will be donated to the Ramsey County Historical Society! \nRCHS members and supporters are encouraged to come and enjoy a lunch/dinner/drink at Waldmann throughout the day\, or time your dinner so that you can stay for the presentation immediately after.

No reservations needed. \nJoin RCHS for History Revealed\, our program series featuring presentations and tours from the best of local historians\, authors and archaeologists\, with a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \nWhat does “community” mean and how did it come to signify everything from close friends to the entire world? Elizabeth Duclos-Orsello returns to St. Paul to talk about her new book\,  Modern Bonds: Redefining Community in Early Twentieth Century St. Paul\,  which considers how community was reconceptualized in the first decades of the twentieth century. Using St. Paul as an example\, she mines a wide range of materials to show how everyday practices and materials — fiction\, photography\, architecture\, public parks\, the winter carnivals — unite and divide citizens across lines of gender\, class\, and race\, while remaking the definition of “community.” Duclos-Orsello makes sense of the complex set of activities\, policies and practices that not only gave birth to modern America but continue to shape life today.  In this interactive lecture/discussion she will share key ideas and examples from the book with the goal of opening up conversations and motivating action in the here and now as much as offering a new synthesis of cultural\, social and intellectual history of the early 20th century. \nCopies of the book will be available for purchase and signing. \nElizabeth Ann Duclos-Orsello is professor and chair of interdisciplinary studies and coordinator of American studies at Salem State University.

SUMMARY:History Revealed: Homes vs Factories
DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nMarc Manderscheid: Homes vs. Factories: The 95-Year Battle over the Future of the South Highland Park Neighborhood”\nHistory Revealed Series\nApril 6\, 2019\nSaturday\, 1:00 pm\nSt. Paul Highland Library\nFree and open to all.

Business leaders wanted the entire area south of St. Paul Avenue for industrial development: 700 acres above the bluff for factories and 600 acres on the Mississippi River for coal receiving by barge. \nMarc Manderscheid will present “Homes vs. Factories: The 95-Year Battle over the Future of the South Highland Park Neighborhood.”  He will explain how city and business leaders planned to make a great new industrial district\, but multiple factors killed the industrial dream: “down zoning” and changing economics then created the current residential neighborhood. \nFeatured image: Aerial view of the Highland Park neighborhood\, looking south.

SUMMARY:History Revealed: Metropolitan Dreams
DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nLarry Millett: Metropolitan Dreams\n\nHistory Revealed Series\nApril 25\, 2019\nThursday\, 7:00 pm\nRamsey County Roseville Library\nFree and open to all. No reservations needed. \nJoin RCHS for History Revealed\, our program series featuring presentations and tours from the best of local historians\, authors and archaeologists\, with a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \nThe story of one of Minnesota’s most famous and most mourned buildings\, set against the history of downtown Minneapolis. \nWhen it opened in 1890\, the twelve-story Northwestern Guaranty Loan Building was the tallest\, largest\, and most splendid commercial structure in Minneapolis—a mighty stone skyscraper built for the ages. How this grand Richardsonian Romanesque edifice\, which later came to be called the Metropolitan Building\, rose with the growth of Minneapolis only to fall in the throes of the city’s postwar renewal\, is revealed in Metropolitan Dreams in all its scandalous intrigue. It is a tale of urban growing pains and architectural ghosts and of colorful\, sometimes criminal characters amid the grandeur and squalor of building and rebuilding a city’s skyline. \nAgainst the thrumming backdrop of turn-of-the-century Minneapolis\, architectural critic and historian Larry Millett recreates the impressive rise of the massive office building\, its walls of green New Hampshire granite and red Lake Superior sandstone surrounding its true architectural wonder\, a dazzling twelve-story iron and glass light court. The drama\, however\, was far from confined to the building itself. A consummate storyteller\, Millett summons the frenetic atmosphere in Gilded Age Minneapolis that encouraged the likes of Northwestern Guaranty’s founder\, real estate speculator Louis Menage\, whose shady deals financed this Minneapolis masterpiece—and then forced him to flee both prosecution and the country a mere three years later. \nDubious as its financial beginnings might have been\, the economic circumstances of the Metropolitan’s demise were at least as questionable. Anchoring Minneapolis’s historic Gateway District in its heyday\, the building’s fortunes shifted with the city’s demographics and finally it fell victim to the fervor of one of the largest downtown urban renewal projects ever undertaken in the United States. Though the long and furious battle to save the Metropolitan ultimately failed in 1962\, its ghost persists in the passion for historic preservation stirred by its demise—and in Metropolitan Dreams\, whose photographs\, architectural drawings\, and absorbing narrative bring the building and its story to vibrant\, enduring life. \nLarry Millet. Photo by Matt Schmidt.\nLarry Millett is the author of many notable books on regional architecture\, including Once There Were Castles\, Minnesota Modern: Architecture and Life at Midcentury (winner of a Minnesota Book Award)\, and Heart of St. Paul: A History of the Pioneer and Endicott Buildings\, all published by Minnesota\, as well as Lost Twin Cities\, Minnesota’s Own: Preserving Our Grand Homes\, and several AIA Guides to the architecture of the Twin Cities. He has also written eight historical novels involving Sherlock Holmes set in turn-of-the-century Minnesota. \n2019 History Revealed Programs\n\nSee the History Revealed 2019 information page for updates and a list of programs.\nOr check our Calendar for these and other programs at the Gibbs Farm\, and more!

SUMMARY:History Revealed: Diesel Heart
DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nMelvin Carter Jr.: Diesel Heart\nwith Marvin R. Anderson\n\nHistory Revealed Series\nMay 7\, 2019\nTuesday\, 7:00 pm\nEast Side Freedom Library\nFree and open to all. No reservations needed. \nJoin RCHS for History Revealed\, our program series featuring presentations and tours from the best of local historians\, authors and archaeologists\, with a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \nFull of humor\, toughness\, hard work\, and surprising vulnerability\, this book shows the bitter weight of racism and the power of principled resistance.\n\nThe doctors gathered around\, passing the stethoscope from hand to hand\, taking turns listening to my chest. Finally\, the lead doctor said\, “Now\, that’s what I call a heartbeat!”\nI snapped\, “Whaddaya mean?”\n“It’s like hearing a diesel engine inside a Mustang body\,” he said. \nMelvin Whitfield Carter Jr.\, the father of St. Paul’s current mayor\, is a true son of Rondo\, the city’s storied African American neighborhood. He was born in a city divided along racial lines and rich in cultural misunderstanding. Growing up in the 1950s and ’60s\, he witnessed the destruction of his neighborhood by the I-94 freeway—and he found his way to fighting and trouble. \nBut Carter turned his life around. As a young man\, he enlisted in the US Navy. He used his fighting ability to survive racist treatment\, winning boxing matches and respect. And as an affirmative action hire in the St. Paul Police Department\, facing prejudice at every turn\, this hardworking\, talented\, and highly principled officer fought to protect the people of the city he calls home. \nDiesel Heart is the story of a leader who created a powerful family legacy by standing up for what is right\, even in the face of adversity. Marvin R. Anderson will be joining Melvin Carter in an informal\, engaging and enlightening conversation\, sharing Mr. Carter’s story and the history of a neighborhood and a city during a turbulent time. \nCopies of Diesel Heart will be available for purchase and signing. \nMelvin Whitfield Carter Jr. served as an officer in the St. Paul Police Department for twenty-eight years. He is the founder and executive director of Save Our Sons. \nMarvin Roger Anderson was raised in Saint Paul’s Rondo neighborhood before leaving to attend Morehouse College in Atlanta\, Georgia\, and then received his J.D. from Hastings College of Law in San Francisco. After serving int he Peace Corp\, he was an ordinance drafter for the city of Minneapolis Department of Civil Rights before earning his Master of Arts from the University of Minnesota’s School of Library Science. He was appointed State Law Librarian in 1980. Anderson’s tenure as State Law Librarian spanned 22 years and included many accomplishments including the “Everybody Wins” reading program\, which paired volunteer legal practitioners with elementary school students to encourage a life-long love of reading.

SUMMARY:History Revealed: Wild & Rare
DESCRIPTION:Ramsey County Historical Society Presents\nAdam Regn Arvidson\, Wild & Rare: Tracking Endangered Species in the Upper Midwest\n\nHistory Revealed Series\nJune 11\, 2019\n6:00 pm: Prairie Tour\n7:00 pm: Presentation & Book Signing\nGibbs Farm\nFree and open to all. No reservations needed. \nJoin us prior to the presentation to tour our restored native prairie! \nJoin RCHS for History Revealed\, our program series featuring presentations and tours from the best of local historians\, authors and archaeologists\, with a wide range of topics drawn from the heritage and traditions of Ramsey County. \nCompelling stories of Minnesota’s endangered species\, the landscapes that nurture them\, and the people who are discovering their secrets.What can endangered species tell us about our part of the world? What can they tell us about us? The elusive Canada lynx bears kittens in Minnesota’s northeastern woods. In the far southeastern part of the state\, the succulent Leedy’s roseroot clings to cold cliffs. On the northwestern grasslands\, the western prairie fringed orchid grows only on ancient glacial beach ridges. In the rivers of the Twin Cities metro area\, the snuffbox mussel snaps on a fish’s nose to give its larvae a temporary home. These species and fifteen others living in Minnesota are on the federal Endangered Species List. This book is an entertaining and educational journey through Minnesota’s diverse landscapes\, one wild and rare inhabitant at a time. Books will be available for purchase and signing. \nArvidson\, a talented science reporter and genial guide\, uncovers the stories of these plants and animals\, providing compelling views of the state’s northern pine forest\, deciduous forest\, and prairie landscapes. Readers learn how beach driving in Texas affects Minnesota’s northernmost bird; how ranchers feel about prairie minnows; how urban runoff affects rivers and therefore mussels; how the wolf ended up in court. Scientists\, orchid-hounds\, lawyers\, and nature lovers weigh in on the value and benefit of rare species—and their right to exist. \nAdam Regn Arvidson is a nonfiction writer and landscape architect living in Minneapolis. His work has appeared in publications ranging from Landscape Architecture Magazine to the Utne Reader to flyway: journal of writing and the environment. In 2009 he was awarded the Bradford Williams Medal for excellence in writing about landscape architecture. He has served as an editor for several publications and is the author of Greening the Landscape: Strategies for Environmentally Sound Practice.  \n2019 History Revealed Programs\n\nSee the History Revealed 2019 information page for updates and a list of programs.\nOr check our Calendar for these and other programs at the Gibbs Farm\, and more!
