The North Carolina History Project worked this week with the Pope Center for Higher Education Policy to put together a program at N.C. Central University that highlighted free-market interpretations of the past, especially cooperation between blacks and whites in late 19th century Asheville. Meanwhile, History Project Director Troy Kickler learned this week he’ll be contributing a chapter to a New York University Press publication scheduled for spring 2010 titled Children and Youth During the Civil War Era. Kickler’s contribution is called “Caught in the Crossfire: Black Children and Youth Amid Contested Definitions of Americanism during Reconstruction.”
