A Colorado school district is using innovative approaches, including billboard advertising, to address declining enrollment as a result of the pandemic.ĭavid Blight is Sterling Professor of American History and Director of the Gilder Lehrman Center for the Study of Slavery, Resistance, and Abolition at Yale University. Stories of the Week: New York City will require that all public school faculty, principals, and staff receive the COVID-19 vaccine. Professor Blight concludes with a reading from his Douglass biography. They explore how the former slave Douglass became America’s foremost abolitionist statesman, and his morally powerful rhetoric, including his famous 1852 speech, “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?” They also cover his involvement in the 19th-century women’s rights movement, his marriages and family, and his later life at his home in D.C., as an elder statesman writing and shaping his enduring legacy. He shares what drew him as a teenager in Flint, Michigan to the study of America’s past, and to Douglass in particular. He is the author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning biography, Frederick Douglass: Prophet of Freedom. This week on “The Learning Curve,” Cara Candal and guest co-host Derrell Bradford talk with David Blight, Sterling Professor of American History and director of the Gilder Lehrman Center for the Study of Slavery, Resistance, and Abolition at Yale University.
