SUMMARY:Douglass Day 2026
DESCRIPTION:Our event\, organized for Black History Month by the Douglass Day organization (DouglassDay.org)\, will be one of about 100 being held across the country and involving thousands of people collaborating in person and online on digital transcriptions aimed at making Black history primary research materials more widely available. This year\, the transcriptions will focus on the materials of the Colored Conventions Project from the University of Delaware. These state and national conventions\, held from the 1830s through Reconstruction\, allowed Black abolitionists and leaders to work toward advancing the legal and civil rights of Black Americans in the 19th century and provided opportunities for leaders like Douglass to rise to prominence. \n\n\n\nThe event will be held from 12-3 pm and include a short transcription tutorial\, viewing of the national Douglass Day broadcast\, several periods of transcription activity\, displays\, and short presentations by local historians on the Colored Conventions\, Frederick Douglass’ visit to Lexington\, Black women honored on the Women’s Monument\, and more. We will also have a birthday cake to celebrate Frederick Douglass’ chosen birthday of February 14. We invite students and educators from local schools as well as the general public to attend. All are welcome. \n\n\n\nThis FREE event is sponsored by the Lexington Lyceum Advocates\, Lexington History Museums\, and LexSeeHer\, and we are actively seeking additional sponsors to help spread the word.
